I own MSFT stock, and yesterday when I opened my money file, it told me that
it was going to enter the special 3.08 dividend for me effective December
10th. I said OK... everything in my file looked great - all account balances
were correct.
I closed money, and re-opened it. I found that money had now classified my
dividend as a debit, not a credit to my account! I manually went in and
changed it and everything looked fine until I closed and reopened. Back to a
debit.
I ran both the quick and standard fixes on my file and tried again. Same
problem.
I deleted the transaction and tried to reenter it. Same problem.
I have had a dividend post for MSFT before, and it is correct so I don't
know what the problem is. My workaround that seemed to fix the problem (at
least for now) is to enter it correctly, then immediatly mark the transaction
as cleared. I closed money and reopened it and everything was fine. Seems
to be a bug, but money doesn't touch the transaction now since it is
classified as cleared.
Any other users experiece this with MSFT or other dividend?
