I'll skip the longwinded history, but I am trying to delete a security account in an investment account. There is no other security/equity for the same underlying security. I can "Close" it, but not "Delete" it. I have deleted all prices for it. By grepping the xml file, it seems to exist only in one transaction - but only within the value part of a keypair for "kmm-matched-tx". I suspect that the security was created automatically when importing that transaction (possibly one of multiple imports) and I had "corrected" the security in another version of that transaction before matching them. I have looked at that transaction from the perspective of all three splits - the Investment account, the Brokerage account (it is a Dividend transaction), and the Category. None of them display as a matched transaction, so there is nothing I can "Accept." Is my best bet to simple manually remove that key/value pair and the one above it about which split it matches? Is there any other way to remove it?

Separately, it seems there is no way to actually remove a <SECURITY....../> record through the UI. It seems to me they are created automatically the first time any security is created with that symbol, but other than seeing it in the Securities tab of the Investment View, there is no way to actually do anything with it. Am I missing something?

Thanks.

Jack
