For it's Personal Portfolio Services (let's leave the cost/benefit of this for   
   another conversation!!), CIBC Wealth Management provides an annual "Client Tax   
   Satement - Gains (Losses) from Sale of Securities".  There is a long list of   
   transactions and    
   related particulars, but there is also a overall Gain(Loss).   
      
   In previous years, I was able to enter this the overall Gain into Schedule 3   
   as the subtotal "Gain (or loss)" for Section/Paragraph#3 ("Publicly traded   
   shares, mutual funds, etc...").  I could do this because I was either   
   completing the paper returns    
   manually or using a spreadsheet-based return known as MyTax (MyTax lets me   
   punch in the number).   
      
   I moved to StudioTax this year because MyTax 2014 is not available.  In   
   StudioTax's Schedule 3, the subtotal "Gain (or loss)" for Section/Paragraph#3   
   is a "computed field", and I cannot directly enter the overall Gain.  Instead,   
   the form requires all the    
   particulars for each transaction, and the fields do not match those in the   
   CIBC statement.   
      
   Is there a way to override the computed field so that I can directly enter the   
   overall Gain from the CIBC statement?  I do not consider it feasible for me to   
   figure out what has to go into the form otherwise.  In previous years, I've   
   tried a number of    
   times to delve into the technicalities of how to generate the required data   
   from the CIBC data, and it is a neverending labyrinth.  I suspect that   
   forensic accountants might be able to figure it out with sumpreme effort, but   
   that's hypothetical scenario    
   is not helpful in this reality.
