: Hi MS,

: I think I understand, but you can't do what you're asking... Assuming you have this portfolio hierarchy:

: Top
: - SubA
: - SubB

: and you have investments in SubA and SubB, but not directly in Top. When you hilight Top in the portfolio editor it will just display SubA and SubB on the right, not all the investments located in SubA and SubB. The value of Top will include all the investments in SubA and SubB, because it includes those sub-portfolios, but the investments just aren't listed at this level, because they actually belong directly in SubA/SubB. If you want to see a "flat" listing of all the investments in Top you can create any report, and report on the Top portfolio, and turn OFF the option to sub-total sub-portfolios.

---

Hopefully final question on this topic: Is there a way for me to have those investments be present in this summary portfolio editor as well. Or can I create a separate sub-portfolio where these investments are linked to.

So for example, can I create links to these investmetns in the Top portfolio. This way the investments can show up in the top portfolio editor report -- and that is the report that i want to see most often in any case. Plus, I do not have to generate the report!

I want to have them sit in the individual portfolios for purposes of gains calculations, retrieval of transactions etc

And when I run overall report, I want to be able to exclude the individual sub-portfolios (to avoid double counting). This is what I was not able to do -- exclude the sub-portfolios for Top portfolio value calculation even though i did not click the "include sub-portfolio" check box.

Thanks Mark!
