Spots,

So do you have an answer or did you just wish to complain :)

I don't think Quicken is a bad as you make it. Sure there are some short falls, but by and large it calculates things OK. IRR "seems" to be correct for most things. One pet peeve is IRR changes if your run your graph based on securities and then change to account, type, etc. Now why should my Rtae of Return change just based on the way I display my graph.

At any rate, I did call Quicken (at my cost) and they did replicate my Short Sale IRR problem. They would send it on to the programers. Seems like a simple fix to me. When they subtract dates, just do an absolute value. Why don't you email them via the Intuit site. The more who complain, the better.

Does Microsoft Money Manager work better?
