Add Support for Pasting Values with $ Dollar Signs into Register & Reconcile window (edited)

For many accounts that are not connected online through quicken, users must paste dollar values from banking websites into quickens register or reconciliation fields. It is so frustrating that quicken won't allow the pasting of a value with a dollar sign $ in it! (e.g. $12.88 vs 12.88). Please Vote for this feature
This is a financial program isn't it? It should be a basic ability for quicken to recognize a dollar sign! Instead we have to be very careful we don't copy a value with a dollar sign in it... Also, extra spaces and carriage returns aren't able to be pasted either.
This borders on classification as a defect IMHO. Please, please fix this.
EDIT: this request includes $, comma, returns, etc (like QM2007 can handle)

And $...
Note: This conversation was created from a reply on: List of Requests for Data Entry and Usability Configuration Options and Features.
It is just odd that this issue would be touched to make some improvement but not go all the way and strip out other common chars in copy & paste to make this work.
Hopefully, next time thye touch this issue, it will be to address it completely. :-D

(The suggestion to include commas above came from a Windows user who noted Quicken Windows didn’t accept pasted values with commas; I don’t think he realized the Mac version already did.)
In any case, it’s a minor clarification; the original point of this thread is still valid: Quicken Mac should be tweaked to allow a pasted numerical value that contains a dollar sign (or a space or a return) to be pasted into a numerical field, stripped of those extraneous characters.

It appears though that they forgot to include this $ and comma support in the Reconcile screen, in the "Use Statement Balance" fields. Can we get this fixed?
