Faulty cost basis calculation

I just re-installed Money 2003 Delux afyter a hardware
problem, and am using a backup copy of the Money file. I
hav eone investment that shows the correct purchase
amounts and quantities, but has calculated the cost basis
incorrectly. ( i.e. purchase 4000 shares at 2.35, cost
basis $52,000 when it should be about $11,000). I can
not find any way to edit the cost basis, or a way to get
this program to re-calculate it correctly.

Anyone else have this problem and solve it?

Try opening Money with Start->Run and entering "msmoney -s" without
the quotes into the box. I don't know that that will help, but it
won't hurt.

Not heard of it. Are you reading the basis in a portfolio view? You
could void the original Buy and re-enter it.
