Bob, Thanks for the reply! Can't blame a guy for trying can ya? I figured the IRS wouldn't let me play that game, but heck, it sounded good to me! I haven't gotten up the nerve to play with anything other than straight stock trades. I especially don't want to do it on this deal... don't have enough time to learn. I'm thinking this particular stock might 'pop' on Thursday (due to a lot of reasons that are way off topic here) so I wanted to try something, but I don't think I'm ready to go that far on my first try. Thanks so much for the help! Mitch

HEY TAX GUYS: I need some advice. My practice consisted of high-income folks who did not have "Low Income Credits" and other similar goodies. My dad passed away last January, and I find in preparing his final return, that he appears to be eligible for the "Credit for the Elderly". Can this be so? His gross income from taxable sources was about $9,500. My software, with which I can been delighted over the years, keeps giving me a credit which wipes out the entire tax. Any help appreciated.
