Follow-up/Add notes missing in MS Money 2005

I upgraded from MSMoney 2003 Deluxe to 2005 Deluxe and I didn't see my
follow-up notes from my earlier version of my money file. Also I didn't see
where I could add new notes.Has this feature been done away with in 2005
edition.

Secondly while backing up to a floppy I was able to select the floppy drive
which used to be my usb key drive mapped to eith F:,G: cannot be selected
anymore.How can I enable the drop down combobox to select the drive for
floppy backup ?

Kindly help

It's there in Advanced Register. Make sure you are in Advanced Register.
R-click on a transaction, Flag to add. To see them on the home page, you
will have to customize the home page to add the flag section. I don't have
an M05 machine handy, or I'd give a more complete path. If you can't find
it, post back.

Try looking under the hard disk backup pulldown. I'm suspecting M03 was
willing to consider it a removable disk and, for whatever reason, M05 isn't.

Right-click onto a transaction in your bank, cash, or credit card
account and select "Flag for followup."

If the OS/driver sets up the drive as a removable drive, then Money
should list it as a Floppy. However that USB drive will have to be
present. Is the drive plugged in? When you look at My Computer with
Windows Explorer, is the drive shown as a removable drive?
