Ira, thanks for your help on this.

Using the technique you suggested, the fractional share
threw the balance off compared to our Ameritrade account. So
I used the full share counts for the calculations of the
SELL amount and it worked out fine. If/When the cash for the
fractional share shows up in Ameritrade, I'll adjust the
transactions accordingly.

Thanks again
