    - Performance & Money File size ?? --- My money file was becoming too large (about 21000KB), I thought. To increase performance I decided to reduce the size by archiving and the size only reduced by about 2000KB and I archived everthing. Why? Where is the meat in this package? Where are the data files kept. Is speed dependent on file size? How do I reduce file size? Tag: Wrong account Tag: 187678

    - Feature I would like to see in future version I have such a hard time keeping track of all the medical bills and deductibles and such. I wish MS Money had a feature to deal with keeping track of medical bills. Almost like the 401K manager or something along that line. I could enter my health insurance parameters: co-pay, deductible, maximum out of pocket, etc. and then MS Money would keep track of how much I will owe. Then once the insurance statement came in I could reconcile the amounts and move the balance due over to my Bills. Sweet! Tag: Wrong account Tag: 187676

    - Money and slow computers --- CPU's?? I've used MSMoney since 98. I'm currently using V2003 on a computer that I built with a minimum speed CPU. I'm using Win98. Many things in Money work great but sometime the program is very slow!! I think I have everything turned off to gain a little performance. The box that MSM came in recommends a CPU speed of 300 mhz. As I would like to update the CPU for one faster, I will appreciate your comments relative to speed, especially from those using an antique computer like mine. Tag: Wrong account Tag: 187675

    - Repeated matching of downloaded transactions I have set up Money 2005 to download transactions from my accounts, which it matches to manually entered transactions.

    - Cap gains report and porfolio error in foreign currency investment Using Money 2004 standard edition (I understand the same applies to Money 2005): Tax-Capital gains report of an investment in foreign currency shows an error. I'd appreciate if MVP's can try the recreation of the error and advise what plans Microsoft Development team has regarding correction of the error. The error can be recreated as follows: 1: set up a file using CA$ as base currency and an exchange rate of US$1 =CA$1.2 2: set up an investment account in US$ 3: 1/Jan/05, buy 1 share of MSFT @ US$100 (exchange rate US$1=CA$1.5 4: 2/Jan/05, sell 1 share of MSFT @ US$100 (exchange rate US$1=CA$1.3 5: Go to Reports-taxes-capital gains and display the capital gains, it will show: Capital Gains Investment account name 01/Jan/05 through 31/12/05 Investment Quantity Date Bought Date Sold Sale Proceeds Purchase Cost Gain/Loss MICROSOFT 1 01/01/05 02/01/05 US$108.33 us$125.00 (US$16.67) This is OBVIOUSLY incorrect, since a report in US$ should show ZERO gain/loss. The problem is that although the report says it is in US$, in reality, Money04 converts each transaction using the transaction exchange rate to C$, then reconverts back to US$ using the master exchange rate from OPTIONS. Furthermore, the same method seems to be used for display of PORTFOLIO values and thus shows the same error. Tag: Wrong account Tag: 187644

    - Question about credit card accounts and budgets I have setup a credit card account and I want to track my balance, so I setup a transfer from checking to the CC account. It shows up in my budget under Transfers, but on all the budget reports (like Spending By Category or Weekly Spending), it doesn't show up. It seems like I have tried every different way to setup my accounts so I can budget payments and track the balance, but there's always one thing that doesn't work correctly. Can someone explain the "right" way to set up a basic checking and debt account so I can budget things and track the balance? And, no, I don't want to use the Debt Reduction Planner. It doesn't allow me to control what payment gets applied to which debt. Thanks. Tag: Wrong account Tag: 187617

    - Renewed faith in MS Money I'm not a MS stockholder but wanted to convey a renewed faith in the MS Money application. I was using 2002 on a Pentium 2 with about 28MB of data back to the early 90's. For a while, I was one of those that was complaining on and off this list, seriously reviewing the alternatives like Moneydance, and seriously considering the jump, etc. I got distraught at the number of comments against 2005. My biggest complaint was the bulkiness of just opening and closing the file. I was concernced that one little hiccup would forever corrupt my file. Well, I bought a new Dell that came with 2004 Deluxe the other day. The new PC is not super fast by today's standards, but a low-end Pentium 4. I have to admit, it is like night and day opening and closing my MS Money file. I would guess 80% of my improvement may have come from the new disk drive. I didn't see alot of differences in features between 2002 vs 2004. However, the performance improvements were immense. At this stage, performance is what I'd like to see MS continue. I'm not sure there are too many features that would help me in day-to-day personal finance management for my family. Thanks, Bob Tag: Wrong account Tag: 187601

    - Imported Money file has corrupt "ghost" bills I own Microsoft Money 2004 and imported my file into the latest trial version.

I also assure that these backups do not replace other backups but supplement them in case a problem goes unnoticed for several backup cycles. Occasionally, I also test these backups to make sure they really are. I recommend you do the same as soon as you are done reading this. "Do you have a good backup?" is a frequent first reply to problems posted here. Don't leave yourself in a position where your only answer is "no."

Deposit to main checking account? #3 Payment to a credit card from the main checking account? (And in the Credit Card Account, I seem to have a double-entry for a payment. But I am hesitant to just delete one of them. One came from downloading the info from my credit card company, while the other came from downloading my statement from my checking account.

    - Cannot Delete Account - MIcrosoft please listen I have read several reports of the same issue I am having. I am a signer on multiple accounts at a bank, most of which are commercial accounts. One writes 4,000 payroll checks every other week. I have 2 personal accounts and 36 business accounts. I do not want money to download the transactions into my personal money software. I have shown those accounts as closed but Money '05 continues to download the transactions. I can not delete individual accounts because it will delete all of them. Money '04 could select accounts to update. I am too far into this to go back as I did not realize for a while this was happening and can not go back to '04 and reenter all of my transactions. Please listen Microsoft.....THIS IS NUTS. IT IS VERY BAD PROGRAMMING. I CAN NOT BELIEVE THAT THEY WERE SO UNWILLING TO WRITE THE CODE BETTER. TAKE A LITTLE MORE TIME AND WRITE THE CODE A LITTLE BETTER. (Yes I was yelling) I have not downloaded for 2 weeks. It took me 10 minutes to download and my accounts have been updating for 30 minutes now. The file size has grown tremendously (TODAY - 93 MEG)and I am sure it will get corrupted again sometime. I would love it if anyone else had a fix for this, but I am sure noone will because microsoft made a bad decision. Before some of you think I am a Microd=sfot basher I am not. I personally use almost all Microsoft products at home , even on my mac and have used Money over Quicken since 1998-99 or so. IN my company we have standardized on mnany MS products. This is just a bad implimentation and needs to be fixed. Hal McCoy Tag: Wrong account Tag: 187551

    - Happy M05 User - Member of the silent majority OK - I'm getting a little tired of everyone saying what a piece of ad-laden crap Money 2005 is. I'm not a MS shill, but I consider my experience relatively common. I use M05 Deluxe, without a Passport, MSN or Yodlee link, to do the following: 1 - Track balances and transactions for several bank, credit card, loan and investment accounts. 2 - Enter transactions by hand as they occur 3 - Download transactions from any direct (non-Yodlee) institutions for verification that I'm not missing anything obvious 4 - Pay bills through my bank and their bill pay service. 5 - Update prices for 529 fund shares that aren't automatically downloaded 6 - Cash Flow Management 7 - Budget Management 8 - Sync to PPC Now, here's my experience: My home page is set to the Account List - no ads there... I add any transactions by hand in the various account registers - no ads there... I download transactions daily, and wait for the updates to finish, then go to the account registers - again no ads there... I go to the Bills Summary page to pay bills - no ads there... (if you count the single link to "Learn more about MSN Bill Pay" as an ad, then, fine - but, frankly, I know what I'm doing on this page, and I've never noticed it - found it doing research for this post - far less obtrusive than anything worth flaming a nearly free program about) I go to the Portfolio Manager page - no ads there (again, except for a couple of links on the left). Now, the way I see it, if you're using Money to do serious investment research, then the links are reasonable, and point you to live web-based info. If you're NOT using Money to do serious investment research (this is my case - I can't imagine using what amounts to freeware to drive investment decisions), then, as in the case above, the links on the left are very unobtrusive if you use the software primarily to manage your accounts. Investment Registers, no ads... Cash Manager, no ads ... Budget Manager, no ads... PPC, no ads... and so on. It's pretty clear where the web content is, especially for folks who are veteran Money users. If you're primarily complaining about tiny (and obvious) links or ads on pages that are INTENDED TO PROVIDE ADVICE which is likely to come from external sources, then I think you're being disingenuous. OK - off the soapbox - the Yodlee thing is a complete hack, but, even there, it isn't Yodlee itself, which is insanely useful as an aggregator, it's the tie to MSN that is the true hack. If they would have treated Yodlee as just another institution, and just pulled transactions locally to your local machine without MSN being involved, I think many of the M05 haters would be cheering loudly. Yes there are many annoying problems that have been around since M98, but the program is essentially free, and the market price download service itself pays for the software. In summary - should we demand everything MS promises? Absolutely. Is M05 the devil spawn? Not in the slightest. Don't use a Passport, treat it as the data aggregating tool that it is, and you'll be happy with it. If you expect it to be a CPA, tax adviser and lawyer, and provide you with broker-level investment advice (if that isn't, in itself, an oxymoron), then, since those are VALUE-ADDED features expect at least to see ads for them, or actually even (gasp) pay more for them. Since I don't expect those features from a (mostly) free program, I never see an obtrusive ad. Never. I know everyone will flame, but that's fine. There are the normal problems associated with every new release of any software (installation, configuration, etc), but really - it performs its core functions, and is a real value as well. Remember, the content of these forums form a self selecting population. Hopefully, this provides some much-needed context. - John Tag: Wrong account Tag: 187548

    - stock option procedure I setup a stock option account. My employee gave me 111 shares in 2002. I was vested recently in Nov 2004, I decided to sell 70 to cover taxes and commission in order to keep the remaining 41. I am using MS2004 DLX. To reflect this in my account, should I "excercise & sell" all 111 in the investment account, then buy back 41? If so, where does Money reflect the portion that is income and shown on my W-2, box 12C, letter V? If not, I'd like to hear a better way to do it.

    - MONEY 2005 - summary info while balancing account gone in this version? Hello all, I have been using Money since '2002, and at this point, I'm about fed up with this supposed 'upgrade' of Money 2005. My bank statements (much like everyone elses, I assume) shows the total number of deposits/credit transactions, and a subtotal for those, and the total number of check/debit transactions, and a subtotal for those, as well. In previous versions of Money, I used to rely upon the same information being shown in the register while balancing my account to help me 'see' that I have the same number of deposits and/or credits, and it really helped to narrow down where a discrepency might be in the register. Now that I have started using Money 2005, I have noticed that this summary information is now missing in the register while balancing accounts. I've searched all over the product, to no avail at this point, for an option to turn these summary counts and totals back on while balancing an account, but I've yet to be able to find any such option. Does anyone know if this feature might be added back in or is it available to be turned on by some regkey or something similar? Any help is appreciated.... This is frustrating enough to make me want to stop using the product - I only switched to Money so I could sync w/ the Pocket PC, and I swear, it's been one series of frustrations with the product over another, and nothing seems to work as logically or simply as Quicken did/does. Oh well. Thanks again, and sorry for the rant. Whitney Roberts Tag: Wrong account Tag: 187512

If the category was not rateable (auto insurance which I pay once per year), I could setup the budget will the Auto Insurance amount in March. 1) I am not seeing this flexibility in Money's budget. Is it there and I am missing something? I ran some reports to look at the last 13 months of spending and income by category. I creating this report some numbers looked way off so I had to dig some more. I came up with some accounts and categories to exclude (dividends from my 401K and IRA's for example). 2) If Money's robust enough to handle exclusions like this? One of the first windows I see prompts shows me 'Automobile' $3500 and then asks me to enter a Monthly value. 3) How does Money determines that $3500? Is there a mapping I can look at? Thanks in advance for your help. Tag: Wrong account Tag: 187500

    - Bank of Oklahoma connection issue Hello, My wife and I have bank accounts sprawled throughout the US and so far 2005 Money Premium has been a champ at pulling them all into one location with one exception. I cannot make a successful connection to Bank of Oklahoma. I have verified the username and password, and have full functionality on BoK's online site. I realize this is probably a platform issue, but does anyone have any idea who I need to contact? Thank you. Tag: Wrong account Tag: 187498

    - Budget Summary Error Hello out there. If anyone can help, I would really appreciate it. The budget summary for February is showing budgeted expense amounts that are different than how I originally created them. This problem occurs only with budgeted expenses that do NOT have an associated bill. For example, I budget $200 for dining out and the budget summary for "current month" shows $183.98. The summary page for "next month", "previous month", and "current year" all show the correct amounts. Only the "current" month summary page changes the values on every item. The Microsoft Knowledge Base doesn't have any article on the issue and at least one person has posted a similar problem here in this newsgroup. I've been using this product since 1997 so I have seen quite a few weird things. This issue is particularly annoying. Thanks if anyone can help. Michael Tag: Wrong account Tag: 187494

Go to the account details of the "wrong" account. Blank out the
financial institution. Download again to the right account. Put the
FI for the "wrong" account back.
