Going back to Quicken
Well I've exhausted my efforts with MS Money. I gave it 4 months and can't
find but a single feature that I like (The home page).. Everything else I
dislike and find harder to use than Quicken.
1) MSM is repeatedly downloading a transaction from my bank that has
already beeen downloaded, matched, posted, and cleared.. It started this
last month and I tolerated it.. Made another payment to the same payee
thinking it might clear up and it did so for a couple days then it's back
again.. downloading the same transaction every time I update. Never had
this problem with Quicken before.
2) I've got online payment transaction in my register that's marked with a
red question mark. The payment was made from MSM and has been processed,
posted, matched, and cleared in my register and online.. Yet it still has
a red ? mark... I've made payments to this payee before, using the same
method and they were ok. My bank shows the payment being made and
processed.. There is no question about it anywhere except MSM.. Never
had this problem with Quicken either..
3) After looking through my investment accounts while catching up in
Quicken, I notice MSM has created "positions" for interest income for one
of my accounts. It's created 3 separate positions in my portfolio for the 3
months of interest income transactions I've received (one per month). I
don't want to even begin to try to figure this one out.. Why weren't they
posted as interest income transactions and reflected in the cash
transactions register? This brings up another annoyance. I can't just add
the cash account portion to my account list so I can conveniently see my
cash balances.. To see cash balances and transactions in investment
accounts I've got to open the investment account and THEN click on the cash
transactions link.. That's about 3 clicks more than necessary.. .And then
I lose the overall account list view I like to see..
4) I don't like the overall layout.. at all! Quicken has this neat
"Account Bar" that remains on the screen showing at all times selected
accounts and their balances.. In Money I have to go to the Account List to
see this information and then I lose the register view I am looking at.
5) I can't stand not having a title bar and status bar as well as a
distinct border surrounding the app.. It's odd and I've not been able to
get used to it.
6) I don't like the behavior of the product and the page-oriented design.
It's sluggish and needs a screen refresh on occasion. Quicken never has
this problem..
7) In Quicken I can right click a transaction and get an instant report for
a) the payee, b) the amount, or c) the category.. Plus the report opens in
a separate window - leaving my register viewable. In MSM it's several
clicks to get the same information and I've lost my register view until I
click click click back to get to it..thereby losing the abiltiy to view the
report and the register at the same time.. It's awkward at best..
8) MSM has a bug in it that you can't tile it with other running programs..
Right-click the taskbar and choose tile (either way) and MSM isn't tiled..
Microsoft apparently tossed out their own Windows design conventions when
they built this product..
9) Reporting is dismal in MSM.. I find a bunch of canned reports that are
less than useful .. Who actually uses the monthly reports? I find them
useless. Furthermore most reports default to some type of chart. I am not
in the business of presenting my personal financial information therefore
charts are of little value to me. I prefer numbers. Microsoft continues
it's practice of being "chart-happy".. preferring to focus on pretty charts
with lots of colors as opposed to actually reporting useful data.
10) The address window showing the page you're currently viewing at the top
is a complete waste of screen space and provides no additional
functionality at all. You can't use it to manuver the various pages so why
have it?
11) The little "update" button should default to initiating UPDATES and not
to the update results page.. Why would I want to view results *before* I
initiate the update ?
12) The program deletes my online password and disables updating for
accounts that encounter an online update error.. This should never happen
regardless of the specific error encountered.
Fortunately I've not got alot of money invested in MSM.. I have an
opportunity to purchase Microsoft software at a nice discount.. so I'm not
out a lot of money.. The unfortunate part is the amount of time I've
invested in converting to and learning this software just to find it coming
up way short of Quicken in so many ways. Despite Intuit's deceptive and
questionable practices, and the excessive cost of their product. IMHO
Quicken *IS* a better product that's much easier to use and designed around
what people need in a personal financial software product. I may try MSM
again someday but this version is a severe regression in usability from the
last time I used MSM.. I'm dissappointed in MSFT with this product.
For all those who have helped me resolve issues in MSM and taught me how to
find features and settings that I couldn't locate, I deeply appreciate the
help. This software just isn't for me though.. Maybe someone from MSFT is
checking these forums and will take these issues to the product group where
they'll be addressed in future versions. I can say that if they maintain
the IE based (page-oriented) application design that uses a single window
utilizing back and forward buttons, I'm not likely to ever to try to switch
to it again. It's cheap programming and the end result shows it..
Finally.. this is just my opinion. I'm not trying to start a flame war
here in this forum about which product is better.. There may be people who
love MSM and find it useful. That's good. I'm not discreding your opinion
or choice of software.. To each his/her own..

Importing stock/mutual fund prices?
Hi,
Can I somehow import price history for my mutual funds and stocks?

Why does my Money Market Fund show a loss?
I have investment in a Money Mkt Fund and all transtactions in this
fund (BUY, SELL and Re-Invest Dividends) are executed at $1.00. Though,
the Performance Reports and Portfolio page shows a Loss. I would think
that since all the buys and sells are at $1.00 they should not result
in any gain/loss and MS Money should simply add the Re-Invested
Dividend to give the gain. However, my balance in the fund matches with
the broker so, there should not be error in the entries. The issue is
only in the Gain/Loss and Period Return amounts.
Any thoughts? Tag: "A problem occurred. Please try again." Tag: 216273
Microsoft Money support Policy
I find this statement regarding Email Support curious:
"Unlimited support requests are included at no charge
"All additional support requests are $35.00 US per request or use an existing

I sure hope I never need more than *unlimited* support :-))

This is not a scam I have done it myself
Can you really make money so easily? I am and this helps whilst
developing my own online business!
I thought it was impossible. Just read this. I don't even have to
convince you that this is not a scam because it makes logical sense how
you can earn money through PayPal.
A little while back, I was browsing through a newsgroup, just like you
are now and came across an article similar to this that said you could
make thousands dollars within weeks with only an initial investment of
=A36.00! So I thought, "Yeah, right, this must be a scam", but like most
of us, I was curious, so I kept reading : OPRAH WINFREY and an article
published in the Wall Street Journal, here is some of it!! Everyone has
heard about "PayPal" (if you haven't you will soon) and, when I came
across this concept I knew it would work because, as a member of
PayPal, I had already experienced their efficiency and excellent
standing. PayPal is the simplest method of making and receiving
payments online anyone has ever seen! Anyone with an email address can
join, for FREE! Please read further before you go there... You can
complete this whole process in less than one hour and you will never
forget the day you decided to do so!!! Oh!, Did I say FAST? By fast I
mean 'the speed of the Internet-type fast.' Everything is done on the
Internet by E-mail. And, if you abide by the rules, it is NOT
considered SPAM, so it's perfectly legal! Anyway, it said that you send
=A31.00 through PayPal to each of the emails stated in the article. You
then place your own email address in the bottom of the list at No.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 few
people first, I thought about trying it. I figured what have I got to
lose except =A36.00, right? Like most of us I was a little skeptical and
a little worried about the legal aspects of it : It follows the same
regulations as the mailed chain letters, which according to the U.S.
Post Office (1-800-725-2161) is indeed legal! Then I invested the
measly =A36.00. Well GUESS WHAT!!?. Within 7 days, I started getting
money in my PayPal account! I was shocked and excited! I figured it
would end soon, but the money just kept coming in. In my first week, I
made about =A325.00. By the end second week I had made a total over
=A3900! In the third week I had over =A37,000.00 and it's still growing.
This is now my fourth week and I have made a total of just over
=A315,000.00 and it's still coming in rapidly. Its : Certainly worth
=A36.00., 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.
REQUIREMENTS: You must have a verified PayPal account. If you do not
have an account you can go to www.paypal.com and follow the
instructions to set up a free account. In order to place the initial
=A36 into your account, you will have to verify your bank account with
PayPal (which may take a few days). Paypal is 100% secure and is used
my millions of people world wide.
STEP 1: Send, through PayPal, =A31.00 to each email on the below list.
Make the subject of the payment "Email List" and in the comments, write
"PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR EMAIL LIST." What you are doing is creating a
service by this and best of all you are not giving your address to
anyone you do not know.. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL!
The email list:
1)ldbevans@ihc.com
2)A.Lloyd9774@student.leedsmet.ac.uk
3)bearcat@keyway.net
4)wrights1983@btinternet.com
5)reece_chown@hotmail.com
6)Jon1_mills@hotmail.com
STEP 2: Now take the 1st email off the list that you see above, move
the other addresses up (6 becomes 5, 5 becomes 4, etc?.) and add YOUR
email address (the one used on the paypal account) as number 6 on the
list.
STEP 3: 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, message board. (I think there are close to 32,000
groups) All you need is 200, but remember, the more you post, the more
money you make - as well as everyone else on the list!

rounding problems with stocks in Money 2007
I have been having an issue with rounding for several years now and I am very
frustrated. I am currently using Money 2007 Deluxe with SP1. With every new
Money release, I hope that my issue will be resolved, but so far, no luck.
Let's say that I have a payroll deduction of $20.70 for stock. The purchase
price per share on that date is $29.4500. There are no service fees. The
transaction shares are 0.7031. In Money, I enter a quantity of 0.7031 and
price $29.4500. Money calculates $20.71 ($20.7063 rounded) instead of $20.70
which messes up my paycheck deposit in my checking account.
I tried using a negative Commission, but Money wouldn't accept a negative
amount. I have also tried using 2 different fields (ie: using quantity and
total or total and price) and letting Money calculate the other, but that
doesn't match up with my statements either.
I read in another thread that Money uses the OS's currency settings (I have
XP Home SP2), so I changed my OS's settings out of desperation. It has not
helped the problem and as a result, ALL currency in Money shows 4 decimal
places (not an attractive result, especially since it didn't help), so I
changed it back to 2 decimal places.
Am I doing something wrong? Did I set up my account incorrectly somehow
(for example, should I have set it up as a 401K even though it's not)? Is
there a way around this? Shouldn't we users have the opportunity to override
this information if it doesn't match our statements (even though Money is
technically correct in it's calculations)? Please help me. Thanks in
advance for your suggestions. Tag: "A problem occurred. Please try again." Tag: 216257
"Money failed to download the necessary files..." (SP1 Update)
Upgrading to SP1, and I'm having a problem that, it seems, no one else is
having. I get the message that Money requires a software update, so I click
OK. It looks like it's about to go for about a half second but then the
little dialog with the meter flashes out of existence and is replaced by
another that says:
"Money failed to download the necessary files for a software update.
Security software on your computer may have interfered, or the servers that
provide the download may be temporarily unavailable. Check your firewall,
anti-virus, or other security software for settings that may be blocking this
download, or simply wait a few minutes and then try again."
This has been going on for days, so scratch the "waiting" part off the list.
I've completely removed Norton Antivirus and made sure Windows Firewall was
off. And I have no other security software running.
So I've done the obvious. Anyone else have any ideas? Tag: "A problem occurred. Please try again." Tag: 216252
Incorrect dates for electronic payment
I'm having a problem that dates back to a service update a few months ago.
I'm with Bank of America (Mass.). If I submit a payment on Sunday, and
schedule it to be paid on Friday, Money shows the cash coming out of my
account on Monday. In reality, Bank of America debits my account on Friday,
the same day that the payee is paid.
If I make a transfer between two BofA accounts, the bank processes it
immediately, but Money says it is several days before the receiving account
has the money.
How can I get these to reflect reality?
Or, how can I get Money to go back to showing the transaction dates like it
used to before the "Service Update"? Tag: "A problem occurred. Please try again." Tag: 216248
report displays no data

Problem with BANK and REPORTS
I have 3 accounts with my bank. I constantly transfer money (as much as
$3000.00/ month) back and forth between the 3 . When I look into the REPORT

reports and budgets out of wack.
Does anybody know if this can me fixed or altered??

Wrong Due Date on APAYs
My APAYs show the wrong due date on the Bills Summary page. For example, a
monthly mortgage payment shows the next due date being Mar 2007. A monthly car
payment, with only five payments left, shows the next due date being in 2011!
The next payment on the Bill Calendar is also missing -- sometimes one or more
-- not necessarily related to the missing payment dates from looking at the
Bill Summary.
This was a problem in Money 2003 before I upgr^H^H^Hchanged to Money 2007.
After I installed M2007, I did the File Repair and also the Remove All Bills
Data options. This seemed to correct the problem at that time.
This weekend, in reviewing some cash flow data, I noted that the issue had
returned. (It could have been there prior to SP1 -- the correct date of APAYs
is not something I check regularly).
So far as I can tell, the instructions to the Bill Pay provider (CheckFree) are
unchanged. They will still be paying monthly.
Any thoughts?
Thanks.

having a Total Account Value of $406.66.

You're given the button options of "Settings...",
"Back Up Now" and "Postpone".
Each being self explanatory.
However, if you change your mind about
closing Money, clicking the red "X" in the
upper right hand corner of the window,
closes Money as if you chose the "Postpone"

Issues when Generating Monthly Report
Good morning folks, I come to you with an issue that has me stumped.
When I clicked on the "Report for October is available" link, I got a
little popup where it was generating the report. One of the things the
popup said was "Reviewing your account for potential problems" Then
Microsoft Money (I am using 2007) hung. I can see in Task Manager it's
using CPU and growing in memory, but I let it run for maybe 20 minutes
and it was still hung. The application had to be killed.
I went to the reports area to click on reports for other months. I saw
that the April 2006 report and everything older, works. May 2007 and
forward has the same problem as October, above. So I am thinking
there's something wrong w. May's data that's screwing it up forward?
But not sure what to look for.
Also, I am sure I had previously seen the May report, and ones between
May and October, but it was probably using money 2006.
Any clue? Thanks in advance! Tag: "A problem occurred. Please try again." Tag: 216145

Money 2005 Keeps Locking Up When I go into account ledger sheets
I can open my Money homepage which has my listed accounts and balances. When
I click on any of the accounts to go into the ledger screen my computer
immediately locks up. There is the money header on the screen but the ledger
portion is empty.
The computer immediately "locks up" and the mouse freezes. I try a soft
boot with task manager and that function even locks up. I eventually have to
do a "hard" shut down every time.
I have tried using the system restore function in Windows XP to a prior
point when the Money program was working correctly and that did not help. I
also tried uninstalling money and then reinstalling it and that has not

MSM07 - Online payment "?" status
I've got an online payment in my register marked with a red question mark
and an envelope. The transaction is a payment initiated from MSM to my
bank's online bill payment service. The payment has prcessed and MSM has
matched the banks transaction with this one and it has an "E" in the
cleared column.. My account online shows the payment and it has been
processed successfully.
The question mark remains..
How can I clear this question mark?
Thanks

Update fixes Loan Pmt Problem--Any other fixes noticed???
MS Money updated M07 last evening when I logged in. I immediately
checked to see if the Loan Payment problem was fixed... and it was...
unless it was fixed with a previous update and I just didn't realize
it, Microsoft actually fixed something!
What other fixes or improvements has anyone noticed

Category question
If you lend some money to a friend, what is this best way to categorise and
record this transaction in Money? Would it be categorised as Income when
the money is paid back to you? Say Irregular Income? What if they pay you
some interest?
Thank you. Tag: "A problem occurred. Please try again." Tag: 216086
Money 2000 Canadian Edition to Money 2007
Hi,
I am having problems importing Money 2000 Canadian Edition into Money 2007.
Money 2007 just complains that the data file has been created using another
version of money. Has it been proven that Money 2007 can convert Money 2000
Canadian? How about MS Money 2006 Canadian Edition? I want to upgrade to a
newer version and I don't want to purchase Money 2006 just to find out that
it won' convert either. Tag: "A problem occurred. Please try again." Tag: 216085
Track Mortgage Transactions
Q1. Please can you let me know how to ensure that my Mortgage payments are
'pulled' into my Mortgage account, from my Current Account, as I would like
to track my payments.
Q2. Please can you let me know what the blue zigzag next to the name of my
Mortgage Account means?
Q3. I wanted to 'Update my Interest Rate' but I don't know my Principal +
Interest amount as I pay interest only. Therefore it calculate my monthly
payments incorrectly. What do you suggest I do to get it correct?
Thank you for your assistance in advance.
Kind regards. Tag: "A problem occurred. Please try again." Tag: 216079
How do you input savings transfers from checking to savings?
I'll probably find out that this was somethgin simple all along but: How do
you categorize transfers from Checking to Savings, if you automatically
download all of your transactions from your bank?
I have $100 automatically transfer from my checking account to savings,
every friday. In effect, paying myself about $400 a month that just gets put
away. I don't follow whether that should be counted as Income or Expense.
What type? Is it an expense from checking and treated as income in Savings?
Similarly, I'm enrolled in the Band of America "Keep the Change" program.
Basically, any time I use my debit card to pay for something, the change
rounded up to the nearest dollar gets transfered from my checking account to
my savings (similar to the automatic transfer I have scheduled).
Any help anyone could offer would be greatly appreciated as I've only been
baffled by the MS Money Help and haven't been a whole lot more successful
with google. Tag: "A problem occurred. Please try again." Tag: 216074
MONEY 2007 TRIAL More Service Pack 1 Issues - Internal Browser Fai
I can see from other threads that the MONEY 2007 SERVICE PACK 1 may have
introduced more problems than it fixed... In my case following the Service
Pack 1 installation MONEY 2007 will no longer connect directly to an
institution's web site with it's internal browser - you can force it to use
an external browser, however all attempts to browse within MONEY 2007 result
in the old 'This program cannot display the webpage' page...
I further suspect that MONEY 2007 may not even be able to update itself
properly following SP1 - as it appears to be a connections or connection
recognition problem. My own investigations confirm that this isn't a Windows
firewall or third party application issue... I'm running the MONEY 2007
trial in a Windows VISTA RC1 environment that includes InterNet Explorer 7...

Budget queries
Hi
I'm new to setting up a budget. I have the following queries:
1. What does the green down arrow mean next to the name of the "Receive
From" name? and what does the up red arrow mean under the Expenses?
2. Why is there row underneath the above heading called "Other Income for
"Wages& Salary"? The amount in this row is 0. This is happening for every
Payslip entry I have entered in the Payslip.
3. Why is there a "Subtotal"? I find this confusing to read. Can it be
removed somehow?
4. I've got other headings with nothing in them eg. Irregular income,
Miscellaneous income, Transfer into budget. What (in brief) would I use
these for?
5. How do I get Money to 'feed' the Pension contribution from the Payslip to
the Pension Account?
Thanks very much in advance for your help.

Microsoft Money 2007 SP1 -- I reverted back to the original (before SP1)
When I opened MS Money Premium 2007 today I was informed that the
update was available and so I let it get installed. Then when I
opened the program again after the install, some of the calculations
were all messed up and so I did a System Restore and went back to
using the original installed version of MS Money Premium 2007.
Here is a description of what was my problem.... Anyone else having
this problem -- or am I doing something wrong?
I opened my checkbook account and entered a transaction for a car
loan payment. I entered the normal payee name and it was auto
entered as usual, then I hit TAB. Previously this would result in
the program auto-entering the rest of the information for the
transaction. In this case it did not. So I manually entered the loan
payment amount, selected category = Loan Payment and subcategory =
the loan account. But the transaction showed twice the dollar amount
that I had entered, and it was shown as an uncategorized amount.
Apparently positive entries were being entered as negative numbers
and negative numbers were entered as positive -- or something else
weird was going on. Anyway, I couldn't figure out any way to get the
program to enter the information the way it was being entered
previously. I tried entering it several times, and tried restarting
the program. Nothing made any difference. I was trying to make a
$400 payment, and the numbers I entered added up to $400, but at the
bottom of the Split screen it showed $800 and said it was
uncategorized, even though I had entered categories for each of the
principal and the interest lines.
The bugs in the original release were not bugging me as badly as
this is. To me this is serious, and it is something that will be
happening all the time. So I just backed out the install and am
using the original release.
Maybe I did something incorrect. But I have had to spend many, many
hours trying to fix things when they got screwed up before, and I
want to be sure I can avoid ever having to go through that again.

How to know monthly amount for debt planner and cash flow forecast
Here is the question:
Hopefully I can make this make sense.....
When you use the debt planner to include debt such as credit cards, loans,
etc, then you get to the page for "Define your payment plan" in the section
at the top where you can either enter in the date you want to be out of debt
or the amount you want to pay each month, how can you know how much you can
afford to pay? If there were a snapshot of say the cash flow chart, and as
you moved the slider representing either the date to be out of debt or the
monthly payment amount, you could dial it in to wherever you wanted your
cash flow to be.
As it is, I don't really see anything other than taking a "SWAG" at a
monthly figure or date, then going through the setting up the recurring
monthly pymts so as to follow the debt plan, then go to the cash flow to see
if I can live with where the floor of the cash flow may end up at.
Am I missing something real obvious here??
thanks all;

2007 default year instead of 2006
In past versions of MS Money, typing 11/10 as the date became 11/10/2006 when
I navigated to the next entry, as it should, using the default current year
of 2006. Since I installed Money 2006, the date instead becomes 11/10/2007,
even though my system year is 2006 and all other programs recognize the
current year as 2006. It's a pain to have to type 11/10/6 to get the right
date. I've checked every Money option and searched online, but I've not found
the right option or anybody else reporting this problem.
Any ideas as to what I need to do to fix this in Money? Tag: "A problem occurred. Please try again." Tag: 216019
Online Trading Stocks
I have Microsoft Money Deluxe 2007 and I am currently starting a new STock
Portfolio and was wondering if Money has the capability for online trading
since it seems to be able to track stock symbols and such of that nature. I
would love to do it through Money and not user another program like etrade or
TD waterhouse to do this.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks,
