Jack, thank you for your swift response. I'm sorry if I appeared rude. I
did not intend to be. The "Investment Value" is at the bottom right of the
image I sent and except for one investment it behaves exactly as I would
expect showing the summed value of the displayed legger.

I've spent a bit of time today looking at firstly currency setup and
everything appeared OK. I then made myself a copy of my file. Removed most
of the other stuff excepting the bit that appears to behave unexpectedly.

I then deleted and re-bought the 4 test investments one by one. Only one
causes the problem and I have no idea why. But, it happens every time I
re-do it by delete and re-buy. I've checked the setup of that investment
and it appears on screen to exactly match the other investments which do
not cause the problem. I've changed the price entry in case that was the
cause between cost per share and total value. This made only expected
differences to the buying but again suddenly the "Investment Value" goes
from sensible (the sum of the set of investments) to non believeable. Why
it does this is currently invisible to me as the other investments each
work as expected and are set up in an identical manner except that the
stock name/id is different as is the price per share and number of shares -
all of which is expected.

Would a video of my screen help? Otherwise, I suspect I'd need to download
and compile the source and start chasing down what is going on in the code
and/or the data when this share buying transaction takes place?

Thank you

Nick
