Brian, You don't have to reconcile each time. if you have opened a "Cash" account you can "UPDATE" it periodically. When you hit the reconcile button cash accounts would update, it is a very simple procedure: it puts the "*" in place and you can update with the missing cash.

I opened an investment account for single investment (Mutual Fund) but want to change it to Multiple type (broker). The reason is to be able to post different Mutual Funds from one Family of funds into one account to reduce the number of accounts, or to change an investment account to an asset account?

I want to use the other alternative: MM/DD/YY or actually would prefer even more YY/MM/DD format which is not offered but my Windows is set up. Each time I open Quicken, I have to go to Option and change the setting to MM/DD/YY for both register and checks. Is there a way to put a line in the ini file to obtain the date format I want?

Sorry..., it may have been the wrong term (reconciliation). This all started with the notion that you apparently can't reconcile a "cash" account with some versions of Quicken. What you say is correct, but this only "clears" that single update entry, and not all the other entries...., and the result is that when you close off a year, all those un-cleared entries stay with you. In other words, when you reconcile a credit card or bank account, the last step Quicken does is "clear" all those entries that are part of the reconciliation. With a "cash" entry, it doesn't appear to do that (I'm using Quicken 6.0 for Win95), unless I've missed something..., which is entirely possible. What I SHOULD have said was that I CLEAR each cash entry at the same time I post it. It used to be a lot easier when we did it all on paper .
