lol, i have had 3( the first 2 i was on hold 25 and 45 minutes respectively just to get to the help desk) conversations with Quicken, the last conversation was the most indepth and he responded that Quicken is going to simply read the data as it comes in from Penson. This doesnt helpme and the fact that they charge a 1.95 a minute to help if it gets complicated doesnt encourage me to stay on the phone with them. Anyways i know what the F problem is. It is in my post before ,,

Penson is recording their transactions out of order it appears because of the inability to distinguish which trade happens first when 2 or more trades happen in the same minute. This shuffled order screws up quicken . It screws up quicken not in the sense you cant import the file into a quicken register, but after importing it,, if you run an investment transaction report or a capital gains report all those out of order or mishuffled trades that loaded create a conflict and the realized gain for that particular securtity is way way off.

I'm fixing them as we speak and its a F pain in the ass.
They are easy to spot if you run a captial gains report and then do it by security because you will see astronically wrong numbers on the security net total summary and then you can pinpoint the trades that the incorrect shuffling is occuring on and then rematch them up.

I have already seen it occur in year 2000 in my january trades one time already so Penson is either not aware of this or doesnt care.

Im still wondering though, what is it that makes quicken
not able to sort through the example i gave in my previous post. Do you know?

Thanks
