How to set up equity accounts for Capital and Retained Earnings (edit)

Using Quicken Classic Personal and Business v R54.16. Balance Sheet shows 1 total for Equity. I need to set up separate accounts for Capital and Retained Earnings.

Can't be done. Quicken is a "personal" accounting system and those concepts just aren't present for personal finances.

You can try using 2 liability Accounts here, though that's awkward. The "Business" aspect of Quicken contemplates only operating as a business reporting on Schedule C.
