    - Late-Clearing check downloading from bank as duplicate I have MS Money 2000 Standard Edition Version 8.0. I paid a bill in March and entered it manually -- check number, date, amount and everything. When I download the transaction from the bank, it enters as an additional check with the same number and the date that it cleared the bank. It took over two months for the check to clear. But, shouldn't MS Money recognize the check by check number and NOT include it as a 'new' transaction?? I've tried deleting the manual entry and correcting the date on the downloaded entry. That doesn't work. It just sees it as a 'new' transaction the next time I download. Thanks. Barb Tag: icon on desktop gone! Tag: 168507

    - Sales Ledger & Bank Charges Hi all, I have Money 2004 SB Edition. My situation is: I issue an invoice to a customer an amount X. The custom pays my internet merchant who takes a percentage A and leaves me with an amount Y. I then receive a cheque from the internet merchant and deposit it in my account. My bank then removes some charges B and gives me the rest amount Z. Sad :) Anyways, What accounts/categories do I need to set up and use in order to have the following: 1. The customer invoice/account with amount X 2. The merchant account with amount A 3. Bank charges with amount B 4. My sales ledger with amount Z Thanks for any help. Ivan Tag: icon on desktop gone!

    - Which version? Hi, I have been using an old version (pre Y2K) of Money for years for doing my small business accounts and it has been basic, but great. But I upgraded my pc so I bought Money 2004 (standard). Unfortunately now I have it out of the box I've found that it is no good for my small business, as unlike the old version I have been using, it doesnt calculate sales tax for each transaction/category. I need this for my 2 monthly sales tax reports. So, to save time downloading and installing each version, can anyone tell me which version(s) allow sales tax reports by category? Then (hopefully) they are available in my country (New Zealand) - all I have been able to find so far is 2004 standard. The Microsoft NZ website is no help as its only showing Money 2002 standard as available. Thanks in advance. Gay Tag: icon on desktop gone! Tag: 168500

    - Recommend an Internet Bank? My bank recently switched from allowing me to pay bills and download transactions from within Money to requiring me to download statements and pay bills exclusively from the bank's website. It is a real pain, compared to the prior convenience. Now I am having trouble finding another bank that will let me use MS Money to its fullest extent. Can you recommend a bank that permits you do download transactions and pay bills from within Money, without having to go to the bank's website? Thanks. Tag: icon on desktop gone! Tag: 168490

    - ALC<402c> code in balancing the checkbook I am getting this code showing up in both the service charge and interest amount boxes when balancing my checkbook in Money 3.0 with Windows XP OS. Currently after leaving the balancing function without completing it, I cannot get by the first window, when returning, because the ALC<402c> is in light gray and not accessible. The program will not let me continue because it says ALC<402c> in not a valid entry. But I cannot get rid of it. Any ideas?? I have tried re-loading the Money program which did not solve it.

    - Budget amounts wrong, Please help!! Here is my delema. In Microsoft Money 2004 I have set up my budget and all was great until I was reviwing my current budget status. Under some of my expenses it shows the budgeted amount as double what (and sometimes triple) what it should be. If I choose one of these items and click edit it shows the box with the choice of editing "a Bill in this category" or "An additional expnese in this category" Under "a Bill in this category" it has a pull down menu and it shows the same item more than once. Only one of the identical choices can be used and it shows the correct information. When I go back to see if my budget is correct it shows only the correct amount. Please someone I would love to fix this problem if possible. The problem here is in the reveiwing current budget status it makes it look like I am under budget and that my budget is much higher than it is. Thanks in advance. Jodi Tag: icon on desktop gone!

    - Automatic Invoicing Is there a way with MS Money 2004 SBE, to have invoices renew themselves every 30 days, or have the bills/deposits list use the account recevables account so that transactions in the bills/deposits list can count as accounts recevied. The reason is I still want to use the customer balance feature that I get with AR, but I want to have the ability that someone is on a monthly payment plan, I can track their payments and so forth without having to make an invoice every month Tag: icon on desktop gone!

    - How can I add my bank's logo? In Money 2004, I have various accounts set up with different banks. Some banks have their logo displayed on the left sidebar when you click for informaton about the institution, but some don't. I guess this is because not all banks are fully affiliated or may not have provided their logo. Is there any way that I can add my bank's logo? Thanks. Tag: icon on desktop gone! Tag: 168458

    - Still No Luck! I really appreciate all the tips but, none have worked. I tried to call Microsoft who sent me to HP who sent me to some call center who I was on the phone with for an hour and then got disconnected. This is what I have done. 1. Attempt to use repair utility: found no errors - no luck 2. Uninstall/Reinstall: several times no errors - no luck 3. Open Money with sample: works fine with sample 4. Try to create new file: new account wizard works until you click finish and then I get the same error 5. Try to open back up file: error every time 6. Try to manually register mspfctl0.dll: "LoadLibrary ("mspfctl0.dll")failed - The specified module could not be found. 7. Clear temp folders in documents and settings - no luck The HP guy was starting to talk about some internal database in XP before we got disconnected. I was on the phone with him an hour and he had just basically read this site to me. Again the error I get is: AppName:msmoney.exe AppVer: 12.0.0.613 ModName: mspfctl0.dll ModVer: 12.0.0.613 Offset: 00018412 Tag: icon on desktop gone! Tag: 168456

    - Work on M04-Dlx file temporarily with M04-demo or M04-Standard? Any information would be appreciated on my question: Till a week or two ago I was running Money 2004 Deluxe and my computer's disk drive died. Luckily I learned from a system crash last year to backup my data almost every day, so my backup was only a day old when the computer crashed. Unfortunately, I am not able to locate my Money 2004 Deluxe CD at the moment (it's in storage somewhere). I have two options: 1. I bought a new PC to replace the one in which the drive crashed, and I got Money 2004 Standard with it. Should I try importing the M04-Dlx backup data file into M04 Standard? Will I lose information from the backup data file? Can I then bring the file into M04-Dlx when I do find my software? 2. Should I download the M04 Deluxe demo (if any, haven't checked) and use that till I find my CD and am able to install it? I hope that I can then take the data at the end of the trial period and continue to use it in my copy of M04-Deluxe? Thanks. -- Himanshu Tag: icon on desktop gone! Tag: 168446

    - Easy Money Hello, My name Robert Baker and I am trying to get the word out on this new program called 5-4-3-2-1 Normally I would not do this but it has been making myself and my family and friends a lot of money. I decided to do this just for a test to see if it would work. I don't really need the money and I really didn't think anything of the program at first. After trying it I realized that this was a great program and people should get to know it. I don't know how to convince you of it and I don't know why you would believe me but I'm just trying to help. If you want to make some serious money then visit: http://hometown.aol.com/gbcis/54321.html It works and you'll thank yourself later By the way if you want to know how much money I have made on the program to date, $8,724.00 and growing.

    - Multiple Paychecks? Hello, I'd like to know if Money (any version) can correctly match two paychecks in the same deposit if I download the transactions from my bank? I have one paycheck that gets deposited weekly, and the other bi-weekly. So twice a month there are deposits with multiple paychecks. Currently I'm using another financial software, but considering switching to Money. I'd like to know if it can handle this before I do. I have no previous experience with Microsoft Money.

    - Money expiration feature I searched the newsgroups and really couldn't get a clear answer to my concerns. I know that 2004 has this expiration feature. Will this feature affect Money 2002? In other words if it is inevitable that the 2002 version's online services will expire before or at the same time as 2004 I may as well upgrade to the newer version. If that is not the case then I will probably want to stay with the current version which suits my needs adequately. Tag: icon on desktop gone! Tag: 168422

    - make money part-time WANT OR NEED MONEY? $MAKE LOTS OF QUICK CASH THE EASY WAY!! NO JOKE$$ Posted by Nan on 5/21/2004 11:18 PM147.174.1.163 $$$$ MAKE LOTS OF QUICK CASH THE EASY WAY!!$$ Dear Internet User, Good day, This article I've written is all about the fact where I earned an ASTOUNDING amount of money in less than a MONTH and I've decided to share or reveal the secrets behind making big bucks in the Mail Order Business. So all MONEY seekers, read this carefully. **READING THIS COULD CHANGE YOUR LIFE!** I found this on a bulletin board like this one and decided to try it. A little while back, I was browsing through several newsgroups, just like you are now, and came across an article similar to this that said you could make thousands of dollars within weeks with only an initial investment of $6.00! So I thought, "Yeah right, this must be a scam", but like most of us, I was curious, so I kept reading. Anyway, it said that you need to send $1.00 to each of the 6 names and address stated in the article. You then place your own name and address in the bottom of the list at #6, and post the article in at least 200 newsgroups. (There are thousands) No catch, that was it. So after thinking it over, and talking to a few people first, I thought about trying it. I figured: "What have I got to lose except 6 stamps and $6.00, right?" Then I invested the measly $6.00. Well GUESS WHAT!!..I started getting MONEY in the mail! I WAS SHOCKED. It's certainly worth $6.00, and 6 stamps, I have spent more than that on the lottery!! Let me tell you how this works and most importantly, why it works.... Also, make sure you print a copy of this article NOW, so you can get the information off of it as you need it. I promise you that if you follow the directions exactly, that you will start making more money than you thought possible by doing something so easy! Read this entire message carefully! (print it out or download it.) Follow the simple directions and watch the money come in! It's that easy!! It's legal!! and, your investment is only $6.00 (Plus postage). IMPORTANT: This is not a rip-off; it is not indecent; it is not illegal; and it is virtually no risk - it really works!!!! If all of the following instructions are adhered to, you will receive extraordinary dividends. PLEASE NOTE: Please follow these directions EXACTLY, and $50,000 or more can be yours in 20 to 60 days. This program remains successful because of the honesty and integrity of the participants. Please continue this success by carefully adhering to the instructions. You will now become part of the Mail Order business. In this business your product is not solid and tangible, it's a service. You are in the business of developing Mailing Lists. Many large corporations are happy to pay big bucks for quality lists. However, the money made from the mailing lists is secondary to the income which is made from people like you and me asking to be included in that list.HERE ARE 4 EASY STEPS TO GET STARTED<-- STEP 1: Get 6 separate pieces of paper and write the following on each piece of paper "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST." Now get 6 US $1.00 bills and place ONE inside EACH of the 6 pieces of paper so the bill will not be seen through the envelope (Please make sure that the bill wouldn't be noticed in the envelope to prevent thievery). Send out US $ DOLLAR, so it would be more acceptable. STEP 2: Next, place one paper in each of the 6 envelopes and seal them properly. You should now have 6 sealed envelopes, each with a piece of paper stating the phrase, "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST.", your name and address, and a $1.00 bill. What you are doing is creating a service. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL! You are requesting for a legitimate service and you are paying for it! Like most of us, I was a little skeptical and a little worried about the legal aspects of it all. So I checked it out with the U.S. Post Office (1-800-725-2161) and they confirmed that it is indeed legal!STEP 3: Mail the US $6.00 to the following addresses: 1) Phyllis M Whiddon 256, JD Road DeRidder LA 70634 2) D Goldring 1368 Kenton Road Parkville Maryland 21234 3) Stuart Stringer P.O Box 41696 Baton Rouge La 70835-9998 4) C Loughrey 9685 Deer Horn Ct. #127 Parker CO. 80134 5) NM Boyd 2456 N. Business 289 Celina TX 75009 6) BRW PO Box 9036 Lexington OH 44904 . STEP 4: Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move the other names up (6 becomes 5, 5 becomes 4, etc...) and add YOUR Name as number 6 on the list. STEP 4: Copy this article. Change anything you need to, but try to keep this article as close to original as possible. Now, post your amended article to at least 200 newsgroups. (I think there are close to 2.4million groups) All you need is 200, but remember, the more you post, the more money you make! This is perfectly legal! If you have any doubts, refer to Title 18, Section 1302 and 1341, US Postal and Lottery Laws or Title 18, Section 3005 in the US code, also in the code of Federal regulations, Volume 16, Sections 255 and 436, which states; "a product or service must be exchanged for money received." The simple note in the letter, "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST", makes it legal because you are paying for exchange of a service, (adding the purchasers name to his mailing list) for a $1.00 fee. IMPORTANT: Keep a copy of these steps for yourself and, whenever you need money, you can use it again, and again. PLEASE REMEMBER that this program remains successful because of the honesty and integrity of the participants and by their carefully adhering to the directions. Look at it this way. If you are of integrity, the program will continue and the money that so many others have received will come your way. NOTE: You may want to retain every name and address sent to you, either on a computer or hard copy and keep the notes people send you. This VERIFIES that you are truly providing a service. (Also, it might be a good idea to wrap the $1 bill in dark paper to reduce the risk of mail theft.) So, as each post is downloaded and the directions carefully followed, six members will be reimbursed for their participation as a List Developer with one dollar each. Your name will move up the list geometrically so that when your name reaches the #1 position you will be receiving thousands of dollars in CASH!!! What an opportunity for only $6.00 ($1.00 for each of the first six people listed above) Send it now, add your own name to the list and you're in business! -->DIRECTIONS FOR HOW TO POST TO NEWSGROUPS<-- Step 1) You do not need to re-type this entire letter to do your own posting. Simply put your mouse cursor at the beginning of this letter, click and drag your cursor to the bottom of this document, right click and select 'copy' from the edit menu. This will copy the entire letter into the computer's memory.Step 2) Open a blank 'notepad' file and place your mouse cursor at the top of the blank page. Right click and from the 'edit' menu select 'paste'. This will paste a copy of the letter into notepad so that you can add your name and postal address to the list.Step 3) Save your new notepad file as a .txt file. If you want to do your postings in different settings, you'll always have this file to go back to. Step 4) Use Netscape or Internet explorer and try searching for various newsgroups (on-line forums, message boards, chat sites, discussions.Step 5) Visit these message boards and post this article as a new message by highlighting the text of this letter and selecting paste from the edit menu. Fill in the Subject, this will be the header that everyone sees as they scroll through the list of postings in a particular group, click the "post" message button. You're done with your first one!Congratulations...THAT'S IT! All you have to do is jump to different newsgroups and post away, after you get the hang of it, it will take about a minute for each newsgroup! **REMEMBER, THE MORE NEWSGROUPS YOU POST IN, THE MORE MONEY YOU WILL MAKE!! BUT YOU HAVE TO POST A MINIMUM OF 200** That's it! You will begin receiving money from around the world within days! You may eventually want to rent a P.O.Box due to the large amount of mail you will receive. If you wish to stay anonymous, you can invent a name to use, as long as the postman will deliver it. **JUST MAKE SURE ALL THE ADDRESSES ARE CORRECT.** *Now the WHY part; Out of 200 postings, say I receive only 5 replies (a very low example). So then I made $5.00 with my name at #6 on the letter. Now, each of the 5 persons who just sent me $1.00 make the MINIMUM 200 postings, each with my name at #5 and only 5 persons respond to each of the original 5, that is another $25.00 for me, now those 25 each make 200 MINIMUM posts with my name at #4 and only 5 replies each, I will bring in an additional $125.00! Now, those 125 persons turn around and post the MINIMUM 200 with my name at #3 and only receive 5 replies each, I will make an additional $626.00! OK, now here is the fun part, each of those 625 persons post a MINIMUM 200 letters with my name at #2 and they each only receive 5 replies, that just made me $3,125.00!!! Those 3,125 persons will all deliver this message to 200 newsgroups with my name at #1 and if still ONLY 5 persons per 200 newsgroups react I will receive $15,625,00! With an original investment of only $6.00! AMAZING! When your name is no longer on the list, you just take the latest posting in the newsgroups, and send out another $6.00 to names on the list, putting your name at number 6 again. And start posting again. The thing to remember is: do you realize that thousands of people all over the world are joining the internet and reading these articles everyday? PLEASE BE HONEST AND THIS WILL TRULY CHANGE YOUR LIFE!!! Thank you so very much and watch the money grow!! Good luck!! BRW Tag: icon on desktop gone! Tag: 168420

Also, if any of you currently buy and trade, which online site do you use (if you don't know a broker personally) and do you use any software for quotes aside from the online site you use. How real time are the quotes you receive etc. I assume websites like ameritrade and etrade etc are supposed to be "realtime" give or take a view seconds...? What about software like Personal Stock Monitor? Currently I was just checking out the ameritrade site, but I'm not sure if I'm understanding it correctly. I was expecting buy/sell commissions to be a % of the transaction, but if I'm reading right, it looks like it's just a flat fee? How is this so, and how are they supposed to make money off of you if they only charge $x per trade? Thanks in advance for any links, recommendations, and tips. Tag: icon on desktop gone! Tag: 168404

    - Back up to CDRW I have been backing up my Money 2001 to a CDRW. (It was taking too many floppies) Recently, though, once I back up the CD will not eject from the machine. I manually remove it but when checking the F. drive, it shows that the information is still there. It remains there until I shut down and start up the computer again Note: This did not happen before and I was backing up successfully onto the same CD for a while. It just started doing this the past month or so. I attempted to do a new back up CD (in case there was a problem with the CD itself) and the first time I backed up there was not problem but when I put it in for a new back up to the same CD, it would not eject as stated above Does anybody know why this is happending Tag: icon on desktop gone!

    - mergers I'm using Money 2004 Standard OEM version, and I need to record a merger. Money's help file tells me to display my portfolio and then, from the left-side menu, click "Record a Special Activity" and then choose "Record a Merger". However, my "Record a Special Activity" menu doesn't include anything about mergers. How can I record a merger with this program? Tag: icon on desktop gone! Tag: 168383

    - Category bugs My Money 2004 crashes when I try to delete specific categories and their subcategories. For instance, for a category that I have named 'Household Cash', in the details window for that category, a tree of subcategories is listed that I did not create, and I cannot delete them either. There are no transactions associated with this category and its subcategories either. These subcategories seem to have been spontaneously created by Money by grabbing names from the category list, because these new subcategories share the same names as those in the category menu. I have done a bit of renaming of categories and have shifted some transactions around, but I don't think any of these functions would have created this bug. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance. -Mark Tag: icon on desktop gone! Tag: 168379

    - MM2003 Transaction download I am using Money 2003 Deluxe on a Windows ME machine. I cannot download statements or transactions into Money from 3rd party websites that support Money downloads. I get an error that says "Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permission to access the item." Anybody know of a fix? Attempts to find help through Money's and Microsoft's Homepages have not been successful. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Mike Simpson Tag: icon on desktop gone! Tag: 168378

    - Where is Budget amount hiding? Using Money 2004: I have a budget category, call it widgets, that shows a budgeted amount of $12,000. When I go to review your budget status and click on expenses, the Widget category shows $0 budgeted. If I check the budget details, for widgets it shows $12000. If I click "View Transactions" nothing shows up. If I click on "Edit", it says "A bill in this category" is Widget($4000/Monthly). If I click OK (to edit) nothing comes up. I believe this information might be from an earlier bill that was changed (or deleted) and is no longer available. Where is it hiding? Does this require a "Repair" Along the same type of thing under the file menu. I had some earlier files I deleted, but they remain listed under the File menu, and do not disappear when an attempt to access is made and no such file found. Why are they not deleted automatically, or what do I need to do to remove the listing? Thanks, Clark Tag: icon on desktop gone! Tag: 168377

    - How do you match invoice payments Hi, I am trying to match my invoice payments to the downloaded deposits and 'invoice payment' category is not in the list of transactions eligible for matching. What is the best way to match my invoice payment to the downloaded statement? The only way I know of is to delete downloaded deposit and leave the invoice payment in my register to avoid double counting. Thanks Tag: icon on desktop gone! Tag: 168372

    - Depositing Multiple Checks... I see that multiple checks can be deposited through Money which works so long as that none of the checks are payroll checks where taxes are being recorded. If I go to include a payroll check along with others in a single deposit, I can't do it. I have to deposit payroll checks independently. This is a bigger issue if you are working with online banking and reconciliation. When the data comes from your bank, it can't find the proper amount of the deposit (every time you connect). Anyone know the solution or is this a flaw in the program? Thanks in advance Scott su58643@msn.com Tag: icon on desktop gone! Tag: 168369
