Need more specifics.. It idles till you shift it then it stalls as in a electrical problem.. Or it stalls violently as in the trans is junk..? Does it just lose spark type of stall?. Are you able to clean the iac or replace it cheaply?.. Are there any vaccum leaks to iac or other sensors?.. I may agree with the above that converter is locking up or staying locked.. Got me.. good luck..

Only starts in neutral.once shifting into any other gear,it stalls.will have to wait till this storm passes to check other symptoms.we are getting a lot of snow in NY right now.

I would try to pull codes if possible and go from there. Sounds like it could be trans but too many other variables.

Check the mass airflow sensor, they can fail without any previous symptoms
