Entering Preexisting Shares

[Jannick Asmus]

Hi,

did you try the setting options > commodities > price source: most recent in 
the balance sheet report?

I have a question concerning the entering of pre-existing shares covered in 
8.5.1 of the documentation.  Since stocks are very liquid I think it makes 
sense to have have the current stock value reflect on ones total and current 
equity.  Instead of specifying the purchase price under equity... I would 
like to show the current worth.  My investment value currently updates 
whenever I get quotes in the price editor, but the equity column remains 
unchanged.  Am I thinking about this wrong... or is this a limitation of 
GNUCash?

Thanks.
