This dialog is available from the File / Import / Positions / Fidelity... menu command.
Position data can be imported from Fidelity. From the Fidelity Wealthscape website (wealthscape.com) export data using "Import & Exports: / Export / Portfolio Management Exports / Standard Format B. You can then import this FImmddyy.POS file into Fund Manager. During the position import Fund Manager will look for corresponding *.SEC and *.PRI files with the same base filename as the *.POS file. These *.SEC and *.PRI files contain closing pricing and additional security information, such as the security names and types. If they are found, this additional information will also be imported.
