Microsoft Money 2005 Small Business

Hello ,

I've only been working with it for a few days now, but I don't think they
have made many changes (if any) to the invoice designer.

It's easier to send Invoice by e-mail, but the customization program looks
the same as the one in 2004.

I don't think MS have ever released trial versions of SB

Deluxe has a trial version, but not SB. Perhaps request a trial version of
SB for future Money release- goto http://microsoft.com/mswish to send a
suggestion about a SB trial.

I have not heard anything about the business part of it, but cannot wait to
see the "improvements" this year. Yes, invoices are my biggest pain. I
stopped using them and just do double entry for now.

Has anyone had the opportunity to preview the Small Business version
yet? I'd love to know if the developers have finally revamped the
Invoice Designer utility. Simply put, I think this business product is
difficult to work with -- I would love to know if anyone has figured
out the trick to desgigning an invoice/statement using FrontPage (or
any other tool) directly.

Some of my peeves include:

1) Using window envelopes and lining all forms up perfectly is a PAIN
2) The DESCRIPTION field allows for 255 chars, but truncates after 64.
What the???
3) No such thing as a "custom" field
