Is there a way to set a new format for Option strings?

Vycke

When an Option trade is downloaded, the string from the broker has the "coded' version (like AAPL230120P00100000, I want that to be AAPL 01/20/23 100.00 P in my Quicken... not "PUT APPLE INC $100 EXP 01/20/23"... Having a ton of "Put" in my list makes it tough to search through. And I have to currently edit each option -- at a rate of ~100+ per month.
Help.

I assume the word "string" is what's entered as the security name?

I can't think of any way of having Quicken automatically massage a downloaded security name into some other format.  The best I can offer is entering any transaction that uses a "new" option manually in the transaction list at the time of the trade and then matching that existing option to the subsequent download.

Not that you asked but if you are dealing with 100+ option trades a month, I’ll suggest Quicken is not a suitable package for you. Your time might be well spent examining alternatives.  Your call obviously.
