: If you are using the latest version of FM, you can track dividends in
: investments you don't own, just as you can with investments you do own.
: You will be given the chance to enter a dist/share if you don't own shares
: for FM to do this calculation for itself.
: Fund Manager does not reduce the NAV, this happens as a result of the

: figures are reported accurately. : Thanks,

: Mark I tried what you said and it works fine except when I put the 0 value in some of
the funds it goes right to the calculation and doesn't give me a chance to put
the dividend in. I also noticed it seems to happen only with the funds I preveiously
owned and sold. Any suggestions? Thanks
Gene
