How do you delete old money files?

Money 2002. If I try to restore an old money file, or my
back up from a floppy, I have to wade through dozens of
old money files, almost all with only a $10 entry and
nothing else. How do I eliminate them?

Well, the flip answer is that you delete them like any other file: go find
them with Windows Explorer and either r-click|Delete or drag to the trash.

But the better question seems to be what you are doing collecting them in
the first place? Are these .MNY files? Why so many of them? I've been
running this for ten years and have one .MNY file.

If you start the backup by double-clicking on the backup file in
Windows Explorer instead of doing File->Restore in Money, there will
be no search.

Money 2004 gives you the option of skipping the search when you do
File->Restore.
