changing creit information in account settings

I have Money 2006.
How come I cannot change the credit information i.e. interest rate in
account settings for my credit cards? Is this because it is an online set
up? I thought I was able to edit the information in the past.

Thanks,
Wayne

It is normally in Change account settings, on the register page of the
relevant CC. Scroll down to Credit information.

However this can depend on exactly which variant of M2006 you are running.

I have the correct location, but I cannot change the values. They are listed
as follows:

Credit Information

Credit limit Unavailable
Minimum payment Unavailable
Payment frequency Monthly
Interest rate 10.74%

I remember that I was once able to change the interest rate amount or the
frequency. These values do not have drop down boxes to change values.
I am running M2006 stndard OEM Edition

Thanks Again,
Wayne

I know it sounds crazy but try clicking on Minimum Payment. It doesn't show
up as an active link but ISTR that opens up a small window.

Let's guess you are running Money 2006 Standard.

Try this. Make an extra backup first in case you want to undo
something.

1. Go to Account Settings by right-clicking the account on the
account list.

2. If the Account Type drop-down is grayed out, disable online
access for that account

3. If the credit card is enabled for online access, disable that.
Banking->AccountTools->ManageOnlineServices. Click the credit
card account, and choose StopUsingOnlineServices....

4. Go to Account Settings by right-clicking the account on the
account list.

5. Change the Account Type drop-down to Bank. If the Account Type
drop-down is grayed out, you probably did not disable online access
for that account.

6. Change the interest rate or whatever.

7. Change the Account Type drop-down to Credit Card.

8. Set up the credit card for online access again if you like.

Thank you Cal!. I got it! What I needed to do is change the account type to
Bank, instead of credit card. Once I changed to bank, I was then able to
edit interest rate. I then changed the account type back to credit card, and
the interest rate I changed it to was still there.

Thanks for your help!
