Please allow user to edit/change auto-populated INDUSTRY classification of securities

Currently, the Industry classification of a security is auto-populated in Quicken - but unfortunately it is often blank (or unknown) or oddly assigned to some general industry, coming from Quicken database, apparently from Morningstar. For example, BP (major oil company) is 'unknown'; industry specific ETF's is assigned to Asset Mgt, even though it is an industry specific ETF. Total un-useful.

Would be very useful to allow user to edit to update and/or override the Quicken assigned Industry. As it exists now, the function is nearly worthless.

    You can use the user definable "Investing Goal" for this if you are not using that field for anything else.

    I already use Investing Goal, so that is not available. Again, I would suggest that the Industry field be editable.

    Ahh I see this is similar to what I posted a day later. Sorry, you have my vote.
