    - Money 2001 & 2007 on same computer? Folks, Would it be a problem to have both Money 2001 and 2007 installed on the same computer? I use Money 2001 for my personal finances. I just got the job of finance secretary at my church where the treasurer uses Money 2007. I bought Money 2007 so he and I could pass files back and forth. However, I don't want to move my own finances to Money 2007 because Money 2001 gives me a good view of my stock portfolio. The newer versions have more and more clutter on the screen to where I see more clutter than portfolio. I could install Money 2007 on a different computer, but it would be more convenient to put it on my main computer where I use Money 2001. I'd put it in a different directory, of course. Does anyone have experience with this? Is it going to give me problems? Thanks for your thoughts on this question. - Dave Tag: opening old backup file Tag: 234542

    - Money 2007 and Vista user account control I have noticed a nasty behavior when running Money 2007 on Vista ultimate. If uer acount control is turned on Money opens the file in program files then writes all its changes to the vitural store. When I close Money and open it again the file that is opened is the old file from program files not the file that contains the changes made last time. Is there another way to fix this behavior other than turning UAC off? Thanks in advance John A. Dwyer, MCSE Tag: opening old backup file Tag: 234528

    - Upgrad I upgraded to Money Plus from Money 2002, when trying to open my old money file, Money Plus hangs up during "converting file". When doing ctrl, alt dele it shows the money process at 78,028. Any ideas on how to get it to open my old file?

    - Money 2008 Plus Premium Upgrade Rebate? I have used Microsoft Money since it first came out and have usually had an opportunity to get an upgrade rebate when I purchased a newer version. The rebate form/coupon was in the retail box. This time around I bought the Money 2008 Plus Premium retail package from Newegg to upgrade from Money 2006 Premium. There was no rebate form/coupon in the box. Am I missing something or has Microsoft adopted the practice of download directly from Microsoft or no upgrade rebate?

I would like to concur (with the original post) and add how bad the product comparison page is, saying nothing about how stripped down the product is. And to ask, if someone knows, how does one "return" a non-physical software download? MS must have SOME mechanism for refund, yes?

    - Financial Events Modeler The Planning Session of MSMoney 2007 has a Financial Events Modeler which could be useful, but I found it quite misleading. One of the scenarios is "What if I pay off my mortgage at the end of this year". Wow! I would have almost six times as much money at the end of my plan. But when I looked more closely at the graph, it seemed as if the Modeler assumes the funds required to pay off my mortgage come from the good fairy, and not out of my current funds. I don't mind having unsophisticated tools available, but when the tools are misleading, that's dangerous in financial software. But maybe I'm missing something? --ron Tag: opening old backup file Tag: 234488

    - Downloading transactions from Fidelity I'm downloading transactions from Fidelity into M2007, and finding that many transactions just don't show up in the download. Money Market purchases rarely show up (although sometimes they do), and today a bunch of mutual fund dividends were missing. I've told Money to save the intermediary files, and I can see that the request file has a date range of yesterday to today, and that the transactions are missing from the response file. Fidelity claims that it's not their fault because the download is being done by a screen scraper (i.e. Yodlee) and it must be a bug there. I thought that direct online updates did not use Yodlee, but got the OFX file directly from the financial institution. Anyone with any knowledge or experience about this? Thanks Tag: opening old backup file Tag: 234476

    - No good turn goes un-punished I thought I was being clever by regularly backing up my .mny file so that in the event of a drive failure or something equally as catastrophic, I wouldn't loose my ten years of Money files. So, when the inevitable finally happened, I was pretty calm. I had the original software - in fact I had been using MS Money since 99 and was up to 2004 all boxed and stored safely for this moment. I bought a new hard drive, re-installed Vista and was just installing the Money 2004 when the CD reported an error. I tried it in another machine and even took it to work and tried, no luck the CD was definitely corrupt. Somewhat annoyed I decided that an upgrade was probably the best way out only to find out that 2004 was the last UK version of Money and I would have to buy another copy of software I already owned....From there it just went completely down hill. Microsoft Money 2004 UK (the one with the =A3 signs on the box) cannot be sourced from anywhere, all vendors list it as discontinued. I tried every conceivable search on Google to see if it came up but apart from a few bogus looking sites promising I could download it for a small fee (which naturally I skipped when my virus protection warned my about the site) it simply isn't available anywhere. OK, now I was getting desperate. I decided to dump my windows Vista and used the software restore disk that came with my PC to roll back to XP (this was bundled with Money 2003 and the only way to access it was to re-image the drive). At least this way I could still access the file. No way..."incompatible version" was the reply. I was starting to get really ticked off by now. In desperation I decided to buy Money 2005 - US version and hope it could at least upgrade. I read somewhere that you could fiddle with the system settings and trick it to load a UK file. I could live with dollar signs so =A335 later I had 2005 installed and it seemed to be going OK. It asked for a password, said it would upgrade the older file, lots of progress bars and finally the "incompatible version" message... aarghhh!!! Wondering what I must have done wrong in a previous life I suddenly stumbled across the actual version I needed on Ebay - Microsoft Money 2004 UK - with the =A3 signs on the front - Hurray!!!!. My euphoria was short lived, it sold 57 minutes ago.... I must have been a mass murderer - surely. So, in what was a final desperate attempt to salvage the last ten years of my life financially, I emailed the highest bidder and offered to pay the full price plus the postage just for a copy of his CD. I had the licence number on my own box, I really only wanted just the actual software. He hasn't been in touch for the last five days....! Anyway, before I throw my self out of the window, I just thought I'd try one of the user groups to see if anybody can help me on this. Has anybody got a copy of MS money 2004 UK that I could copy (please). I'll pay the postage or provide an area to let you upload to and pay what ever you want via PayPal for you trouble. I'll even provide a free valuable tip about backing up your software as well as your files... thanks in hope!!! Tag: opening old backup file Tag: 234471

    - How do I manually zero a Bank Balance? I last performed an online download for one of my credit card accounts in FEB 08. In MAR 08, I paid the entire balance and closed the account. The bank cut off my online access when the account was closed, so I am unable to perform another online download which would reflect payment in full and zero the balance.

    - How do I convert Quicken for Mac export file to Money? Does anyone have any experience with converting a Quicken Mac data file to Money? We made the switch from Money to Quicken for Mac a couple years ago when we bought our first Mac, and now that we have a Mac that will run Parallels efficiently we're ready to switch back to using Money - we've been very disappointed with the Mac version of Quicken. Money seems to provide the functionality to convert a Quicken for Windows export file (.qdf) but not the Quicken for Mac export file (.qdfm). I've searched the web for some ideas on how to accomplish this, but everything I've found relates to switching in the opposite direction. Tag: opening old backup file Tag: 234455

    - Cash Transactions on Investment account Hello, I have an investment account, and I hate that Money Plus shows the overall "Account Value" as some small value. That is because the "Cash Transactions" counts against the overall value. So what is really worth $10,000 is shows the account value as $1,000 because the cash transactions are ($9,000). I see that under Account Settings I can remove the ability to track cash transactions. Since I am somewhat new to MS Money, will I regret not tracking cash transactions? I see that going this way will result in my inability to download transactions, but I guess I am willing to live with this? I mean, if my account is worth $10,000 I want it to show $10,000 Can anyone give me some advice? Brad Tag: opening old backup file Tag: 234413

Copy the file from the CD to your hard drive. Turn off the read-only
property. Launch the file.
