File Conversion From Money 2002 to Money 2004

Have a look how "cheque" is spelt in help. That will give you a clue as to
whether you have an English based version or a USA version.

How do I tell from the program what version I am currently running (Thrown
packaging out.)

You have to stick within region when upgrading. US > US or UK > UK is OK but
UK > US is a non-no.

BTW if you have to return your M2004 you might want to take note that M2005
is due out in 2/3 weeks.

Hi
I have been using Money 2002 Standard Edition for quite some time now and I
have just recently brought Money 2004 Deluxe Edition.
I have Installed the 2004 edition and tried to convert the 2002 version and
when it tries to convert the file it comes with an error message "Money was
unable to open this file because it was created with an Incompatible
version". Yet I am able to convert a money file that I use to use with money
98. Can anyone explain why?
