VAT/GST not applied to existing transactions

I have just been converting my MS Money files to Moneydance, and importing new transactions from my banks. So far so good. I then enabled VAT/GST via the Tools menu, setting the VAT rates for specific categories. Unfortunately, I have now discovered existing transactions in VAT-liable categories/accounts aren't updated. I don't think I can even use reports to output the VAT-liable transactions, and perform the tax calculations using a spreadsheet.

Is there any way of overcoming this without having to re-enter hundreds of transactions?

    Shopping,

    I'm sorry to say that VAT/GST setting don't update existing transactions. It is a feature we are looking at working into future versions of Moneydance, but it is not a simple fix to implement. Our feature request and bug reporting system is integrated with our wiki. We invite our users to register and use these systems to help improve Moneydance by bringing bugs to our attention and requesting new features. Users can also vote on tickets, which helps us determine how wide-spread bugs are and which requests have the most demand.

    Please let me know if I can be of further assistance,
