A supplementary question now.

I have an Investment account, and below that an Equity account and below 
that a security.

The top level was open, as was the bottom level, but not the Equity 
account.  In Investment view, on the account tab, the Equity appeared as 
though open, with no hint that it was closed, until right clicked.  If 
an investment account is closed, it appears as crossed through, but not 
the equity.  A bit of inconsistency, perhaps?

In fact, I'm not now clear on the need/purpose for all three.
