Hi John, thanks for the reply.  I guess I omitted the fact that the existing stock had a different name (symbol) that the new stock.  So is this more of a transfer?

Thanks,

Hi all:

I had a merger transaction on one of my Canadian stocks where my existing 
holding was acquired on a 33 for 20 basis (new for old). From 500 of the 
existing shares for 825 shares of the new.  I also had a net gain in cash of 
C$16.75.

I am uncertain on how to handle this transaction in GC.

I would greatly appreciate any suggestions.
Actions>Stock Split.... Add 325 shares and book a "cash in lieu" for the 
C$16.75.

Regards,
John Ralls
