Seems like I need FM to use more than just symbol to "disambiguate" the funds. The investment files created by FM did have different "Name" attributes, so it would seem that FM could/should match up names when symbols are ambiguous. : : P.S. I have no idea how Quicken or MS-Money handle this, but the Hewitt site provides direction for using both (which I consulted to figure out how to enter my userid into FM), so my guess is they work OK without requiring a change (for nonblank symbols) at Hewitt. : : Okay, thanks for the information.
