MS Money 2002 Deluxe problem

I'm using MS Money 2002 Deluxe to manage a few stocks I
own. Recently, one of the stocks I owned merged with
another stock. I can't seem to find a way with my present
software to simply change the name, ticker symbol, and
total number of shares owned? Is this possible or does a
newer version of MS Money handle merger situations?

Money 2003 and Money 2004 Deluxe do it better. While Money 2002
deluxe does have the reorganization thing, I think it does not
maintain the basis date correctly.

You can change the name and symbol in the details. Enter an
appropriate split to change the number of shares.
