Scott, 
See my post below; unfortunately no feedback from anyone concerning whether
we are doing something wrong (;>)) or whether this is a bug (likely). I have
emailed MD support but no reply yet.

The problem I am having is simple: 
	>When I download a dividend reinvestment (from Vanguard), all fields

	>(DIV - (Shares Purchased * Share Price)) - Fee which always leaves
me with a negative remainder after the transaction, 	>rather than 
	>(DIV - Fee) - (Shares * Price), which leaves the account balance
the same (0) but adjusts for the new shares purchased. 
	>Am I doing something wrong? My search of posts here, general forum,
and Trac showed no similar posts.

Has anyone else had this?  I had an account in 526 with a balance of 
$0.00.  In 528, it didn't count the fee as part of the dividend in my 
divreinvest transaction and so incorrectly adjusted the cash balance.  I 
didn't see this listed in trac, but I wanted to ask around before I 
entered it.
