: I assumed it would be something I did. but I checked the dates and the values are still off. To double check I ran them again.

: I chose Graphs | Portfolio Value -I get a graph and V:$$6,139.32(+2150.21)
: I double checked the Date range 1/1/99 - 7/27/99
: I do Graphs | Portfolio Gain and get V:(4015.29)(+57.61)

: I run the portfolio performance report and the gain is 1922.xx

: Shouldn't the 2150, 4015 and 1922 all be the same number?

The portfolio gain graph legend should have a G:, not a V:? This number
is your gain since the start of your graph. The gain listed on
the Portfolio Gain graph legend will be the same as the gain listed in
the portfolio performance report if you have the same date range on this
graph as in the report. You didn't mention what the date range of your report
was?

The 2150 number is the change in value of your portfolio from the ending
graph date to the day prior. This is not the same as the gain since
the starting graph date.

Thanks,
Mark
