You may wish to keep your shares in the existing investment file instead
of moving them to a new file. This way you can keep your full transaction
history. If you've moved them to a new fund with a different number of shares
just record a split on the transfer date to adjust the number of shares. In the future hopefully we can offer a feature that allows merging multiple
investments and retaining the transaction history of each. Thanks,
Mark
