SUMMARY

Reinvested Capital Gains distributions may be imported from your broker as Reinvested Dividend transactions.

MORE INFORMATION

This issue depends on how the broker records the data that is to be exported to MSN Investor.

Some brokers may have legacy code for the reinvest portion of investing income which may not make the distinction between Long Term Capital Gains (CGLONG) and Short Term Capital Gain (CGSHORT) and Dividends (DIV).
