@Hatim
Yes. I will be requesting to upload latest version of this program that will allow to process multiple TXF files prior to generate Forms.

Thanks,

Jatin

@Anshul Jain
Thanks for your comments. I will be requesting to upload latest version of this program that will have longer length for Description. Also it will allow to add more than one txf files.

Thanks,

Jatin

Hi Jatin,

Your 2011 Schedule D generator is a great help. Thanks a lot for providing such a wonderful calculator for free. I had lots of option trades (more than 200) in 2011 and was trying to use trade log software but it failed miserably while computing expired options and some other wash sale interpretations. Your simple excel format did wonders and I could exactly match to the loss I encountered and get accurate wash sale information from you spreadsheet.

Thanks a lot buddy for such a great tool!

Hi Jatin,

After the form 8949 is created, the “Description of property” column can be viewed only partially. I can not change the width of the columns either !!!

Please help in this regard

Hi Jatin:
If i have multiple txf files for different accounts , Is it possible to merge them prior to generate 1 schedule D

Can you create a spreadsheet that will create the 2011 schedule D & schedule D1 forms for a 1065 Business Partnership Return?

@Jane
Hi Jane,

Can you please send me some sample data from your TXF file and I will look into the issue.

You can email me on jat_patan@rediffmail.com

Thanks,

Jatin

Is there a limit to the number of lines your program can generate? My printed Scottrade 2011 information has approx 400 trades on it (27 pages @ 16/page avg.) Using your program to open the TXF in row format all the trades appear to be there. (That conversion took about 3200 lines in Excel.) About 1/2 of these trades are wash sales. Your program does an excellent job of converting (Ctrl-Shift-J) to a readable format – which be about 400 lines including wash sale offset lines – but I only get 27 lines, and those aren’t the first 27 lines. Any thoughts?

Hello,

I was wondering if you could post the 2009 version online or email to me.
Thanks.

Hi Jatin, thanks for the amazing tool. It works for my Sharebuilder txf, but I got a problem with my 2010 Scottrade txf. It does not seem to import any data from the txf. The data sheet is simply empty, but I do see the box “Process completed! Want to Generate Schedule D1?”

Awesome… Jatin, do you have a 2011 version yet?

Thanks,
David

Can you send me the excel sheet for 2011?

Jatin!

You Rock! you are the man, I am impressed!

John

Hi Jatin,

I just tried your 2010 generator and it worked like a charm. However, I received a notice from IRS for the same for 2009. Can you please email me the generator for 2009 ? I really appreciate it.

@Jatin
Hi Jatin,
I am really impressed by this, great job! Only problem I have is that I need to do it for 2009, for some reason they dont have my tax return for that year
If you can Id really appreciate a 2009 version of this software too.
Thanks
Justin

@philip
I too would greatly appreciate a 2009 version of this great tool.

Can some one please share Schedule D for 2009

@Barry
Hi Barry,

As of now, I do not have any customized program to print all Schedule D1 pages. However you can print all the pages as guided below.

In excel, got to File -> Print option

Print dialogue box will open. On this dialogue box, select “Entire Workbook” option under “Print What” category

This will print all the pages including Schedule D as well. Note that this will also print data sheet.

Regarding an 8 in the first line of the long term listing. This form is exact replica of federal provided form meaning empty form from federal website has an 8 printed on it.

For 2009 schedule, I sent you 2009 schedule excel in separate email. Hope it will help.

Thanks much and sorry for late reply.

Jatin

Hi again,
I notice that my messages have been removed or at least not showing!

I sent you a gift and hope you can get this to work better.

Issue 1. could NOT generate schedule D1 pages. Did get Schedule D printed. The only way I could find to print Schedule D1 pages is to select each of the 84 pages and print. The front would have short term and the back long term. These had an 8 in the first line of the long term listing.
Issue 2. had no way of designating 2009 instead of 2010 and IRS can go back 3 years. So if you are required to resend data to them it would be impossible to do years 2007,2008,2009

Hope you can fix these problems. The Schedule D generator is a much needed thing.

Also would like to mention http://www.excel1040.com has an excellent program that would help many to do there taxes using excel. What it is lacking your program has.

I hope you don’t delete this post.

Thanks for the program.
Barry

Hi, Can’t figure out how to go back and print d1 pages. Got the Schedule D printed but no D1. Oh, and it still has the 2010 and not 2009 don’t know if IRS will nab me or not. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi, I love this generator! I printed out the Schedule D using an old computer with excel and worked like a charm. Haven’t got the D1 pages though. I clicked on the generator for Sch D file and it opens with the Schedule D that it generated before. How do I print the D1s or do I need to send them to IRS with 1040? Also… the txf file is 2009 and it prints 2010… does this matter? I will be sending 2010 again also. IRS has requested 2009 and 2010.

Your help is much appreciated!

Hi Jatin, I am having a problem with LibreOffice Calc. When I press the Ctl Shift J. LebreOffice Calc is using Ctl Shift J activate full screen. Is there a work around this problem?

Thanks for your help
Barry

In openoffice calc, ctrl shft j does not work and if I try to run the macro from Tools>Macro>Run Macro it does not work either. Any suggestions?

I am using openoffice calc. when I press ctrl shft j nothing happens. macros are enabled. please respond if you can. thanks

How can I create my Schedule D for 2009? I did run my .txf file against the 2010 schedule D generator and it seems to be doing the correct thing. However, I need the data to be displayed on a 2009 Schedule D and D1 forms (yes I am one of those lazy guys, who waited this long for filing my return from 09).

@drajjo
Hi,

Line 6 and Line 14 are editable and does not ask for password.

For Line 6, write negative amount in excel Column N Line 26 (N26).

For Line 14, write negative amount in excel Column N Line 48 (N48).

Thanks,

Jatin

@Jatin

It works like a charm until I try to populate line 6 on Schedule D form for Capital Loss Carryover from previous year. It asks for a password to make any changes there. Is there a way to add this info prior to generating the schedule D form?

& thanks for your prompt response Jatin!!

@drajjo
Hi,

Once you have the TXF file with you, you can open this excel and press “Ctrl+Shift+J” to call the macro.

This will ask you for the location of TXF file, once selected, data will be populated in this excel. It will also gives you option if you want to generate Schedule D forms. Select No. This will allow you to update/modify the data in data_sheet as par your requirement.

Once modified the data, press “Ctrl+Shift+J” again and proceed with form generation.

Thanks,

Jatin

@Steve Baldasti
Hi Steve,

Download the txf from Schwab to your computer.

Open this excel file and Press “Ctrl+Shift+J” together. This will ask you to select the txf file from your computer.

Once you select the file, It will copy data into this excel and then ask you for the option if you want to generate the forms.

Select Yes and forms will be generated for you.

If you have any question, feel free to contact me on jat_patan@rediffmail.com

Thanks,

Jatin

Awesome work you guys!!!!

What password would unprotect the worksheet so data could be entered manually?

Many thanks!!

I keyed all the transactions into an Excel file. I tried to convert that file to a .txf file. Excel created the file but the Marco didn’t see the file.

Could I download a .txf from say Schwab, then copy and paste all the transaction into this file then execute the Macro?

@qwizzy
Hi,

This macro is written on Windows plateform using Excel 2003. I never tried this one on Mac and I do not know how to handle it on Mac.

May be you can try to open this file again and this time proceed WITH Macros. It may work. I am not sure about it though.

Thanks,

Jatin

@Nick
Hi Nick,

Can you please provide me transaction details from TXF file for the stock that is causing issue.

I will have a look into it.

You can change stock name to any random name while sending over.

Thanks much.

Jatin

@Pete Calinski
Hi,

As of now, this macro is made to use TXF file only.

To invoke the macro, press “Ctrl+Shift+J”.

Once you select the TXF file, data will be created in data sheet and it will prompt you if you want to generate the Schedule. Select NO.

Now edit data as par your desire and then press “Ctrl+Shift+J”. When prompted, select “Yes” option and it will generate Schedule D based on data in data sheet.

Hope this will help. Let me know if any question.

Thanks,
Jatin

I used this script but in the end, it gave me invalid numbers. Essentially, the problem is that the script can’t determine if there’s a wash sale at the end of the year because the .txf file doesn’t contain information about the stock I purchased after selling at a loss. This happens because I haven’t yet sold the replacement stock. It’s sold at the beginning of 2011 but still makes the last sell in 2010 subject to wash sale rules.

Other than that, this has been a great script for helping me check my numbers. Thanks.

Mac using Excel 2008. Warning pops up re: macros. Options: to strip macros, to keep macros but open anyway, to use AppleScript to rebuild macros so Excel 2008 can use them. I proceeded w/o macros but CTRL+SHIFT+J would not open anything. So no auto-run to printout. Please advise. Thanx!!

Is there a version of this macro that can use .xls files. I can’t seem to get a txf type file from ETrade.
Also, is there a way to restart the Schedule D generation after editing the file? Believe it or not GainsKeeper computed a sale incorrectly. Apparently it can’t cope with a sale for negative amount. I placed an order to sell a large number of options and they sold in two lots. The broker put the full commission against the first lot and that commission wiped out all the cash from the sale and $139 more resulting with a -$139. GainsKeeper changed it to a positive amount.

Thanks

@Sniup
Hi,

Generated three lines are correct. Whenever there is a wash sale, 2 lines gets generated to wash out the sale transaction.
There is a chance that entry in IB.TXF is not correct as I see $0.00 as sale amount in file.
See below example of wash sale entry in TXF file:
^
TD
N682
C1
L1
P100.0000 of Direxon Fin Bear (FAZ)
D03/25/2009
D03/27/2009
$2,300.00
$1,992.98
^
Similar example is also available on various tax filing web sites like Turbo Tax.

You can export transactions for this particular stock from your broker site and use some external utility to generate sample TXF file. You can compare it with IB.TXF.
OR you can send me transaction data for this particular stock and I will check it for you.

Also, the excel is now modified to give you more control on data sheet so that you can manipulate data as par your desire.
