File Conversion

I have recently upgraded from Money deluxe 2004 to Money Standard 2005,
however the new version will not convert the old file. Is there any way to
convert it.

Do you get an error message or what?

There is a significant update to Money 2005 that gets downloaded
when you first do an online update. I am wondering if your
conversion was done before the update was applied, and perhaps
re-converting after the update would solve the problem. Do an
internet update to make sure that the update has been applied.

Then here is what I would do. When Money 2005 converted your file,
it left a copy of the Money 2004 version on your drive as *.m12 .
Copy that file to bodri05.mny. File->Open bodri05.mny with Money
2005. Money will convert again, and I hope will succeed without
problem. Let us know whether the problem still occurs.

ye,the problem still occurs.after the upgrade ,the version is 14.0.125.825.but
when i convert it still says "cannot locate the mny or canot open
it,possibly because it is a read-only file or you do not have permission".i
also used "salv.exe" in version 2004 2005 ,they both says "no problem"!
