Thanks for that reply.  Last year and in prior years, Pro Series simply allowed designation of S or L for short or long without  having to enter any dates for grouped transactions and that should have been my real question. I don't see a reason why they chose to eliminate this in the current program in favor of their new worksheet which now requires a date and no longer accepts short or long only. Many of us have been long time users like myself and liked that input option. Not a fan of their new capital gains worksheet. I hope the programmers will also restore input form FDI-30 for more flexible entry options
