[net.micro.pc] NEED program to do capital gains/losses

mlwh@sun.uucp (Martin Hall) (08/20/86)

I have a friend who is a stock broker and he would like a way that he
can keep track of capital gains and losses in his personal stock
portfolio.  At work he has got everything he needs.  But he would like
to do something similar at home.  This would be mainly for tax purposes.
He would like to be able to Input the name of a stock, the date and how
many shares bought or sold and the price of the stock.  He would
probably would want to be able to go back and review what he did on a
certain day, etc.  He does not want to call up Dow Jones, or something
like that..
He would like this to be as simple to use as possible as he does not use
the PC very often and is not very adept at it.  If there is no specific
package out there would there be an easy to learn database program where
he could set it up relatively easily (or maybe even a fron-end for a
spread sheet).  Any information would be helpful..
