[moneydance] Changing the name of a security

[Gordon Alley]

You really thought you could edit the security name by clicking the Edit
Security button?! What a novel thought. :-) That actually opens the Account
Info dialog for the security, which doesn't let you edit the security
itself.

If you are in the Securities Detail window for the investment account,
select the security from the popup menu, click on the History button to open
the Currency / Security History dialog, and click on the Edit button. The
Edit Security dialog will open, and there you can edit the security name,
ticker symbol, and some other items.

Alternatively, pull down the Tools menu, select Edit Securities, select the
security from the popup menu, and click the Edit button to bring up the
Currency / Security History dialog. Proceed as above.

The MD user interface could use a little work. :-)
