[GNC] How to enter a specific lof for stock

[Suseno Dermawan]

Hi John,

What did you set for the stock's smallest fraction traded in the security
editor?
1/1

Do you have Automatic decimal point set in Preferences>Numbers, Date, Time?
yes

If so, what have you set for the number of decimal places?
2
