Schedule D whereabouts

I'm looking at the options for a TXF export, and want to set a 
particular account to hold my Long Term Capital Gains Distributions 
from a mutual fund.

In the Account/Tax Information dialog, under the Income radio button, 
I see Schedule B, C, & F, but no D. I also see under Schedule B the 
Ordinary Dividends and cap-gain Distributions. The info about the 
cap-gains Distribution looks good. However, the Ordinary Dividends 
one says that long-term should be under schedule D. Is this jsut old 
info?

I'm trying to figure out what the best account tree would be for 
taxable transactions (like Long-term cap-gains). Right now, I have 
parallel trees in income and expense (Assets:Fund and Income:Cap 
Gains: Fund). Is this a good setup? Is there a better way?

Thanks for any info,

Frank
