A stock in my portfolio had a reverse stock split.

Microsoft money does not have an option for this.

Does anybody have a work around for this problem.

For a regular split, you might do a 2 for 1 split. For a reverse
split, do a 1 for 10 split, or whatever the split is.

The problem with the reverse split is the first number: it is .1429 for 1.

The first number has to be a whole number not a decimal.

Any suggestions.

As long as the ratio is correct, I think the split will work properly even if
the numbers aren't the same. I tried using 1429 for 10000, and it seemed to
work ok.

That worked, thanks for the help, I did not think to multiply the number on
both sides.
