Rich Have been using GnuCash for a similar period of time and have not noticed any reconciliation problems (other than those reported as bugs on the list - any that are are generally fixed pretty quickly) up to v4.9, particulaarly in recent versions. Haven't yet done a reconciliation with 4.10.

Further to this: you care about how much money something cost (the amount you have spent), and how much you got for it (the amount of shares you purchased). The first affects how much money you have in your bank account, the second affects how many shares show in your mutual fund. On April 11,
