missing feature from Moneydance. As you have indicated it is often
used with mergers and take-overs, for what it is worth it is also
used for stock conversions (e.g. preference to ordinary shares)</p>
<p>I'm afraid that using sell and buy transactions is the only
option in MD but as you said it loses all history. To stop capital
gains reporting you would have to sell at the original purchase
price and buy after manually doing the calculations for a different
number of shares using the original total buy price.</p>
<p>Yes very messy and not really satisfactory..</p></div>dwg
