It is possible to do what you are trying to do, from the Ledger view.  However,
when you get the wizard, before entering the symbol you wish to use, you need
to clear the name that has been created.  Otherwise, the newly created security
you've just agreed to create will be used.  Clearing that new name in effect
starts anew.  (@Jack) Perhaps an addition to the handbook should cover that.

I'll try to digest this tomorrow.
