There are about 10 - all with historical data, including
(from memory) various such as Israeli Shekels, Turkish
Lira, Malaysian Ringit, UAE whatevers, Jordanian Ryals,
Syrian Pounds . I lived overseas for a while so there
are quite a few - there are more that I can't remember
without going through the instalation again. I'm pretty
sure all of those tha pop up in Money 2005 were created
by me, rather than being pre-listed in Money 99.

I get a series of messages telling me the currency isn't
supported and I need to specify another one. This seems
a bit odd and I'm worried that using another nominal
currency might affect my historical data by assigning an
incorrect exchange rate. Frankly, this flexible,
multiple currency approach - where you can manually add
them to the list and specify the exchange rate - is one
of the things I like about 99. I don't know when MS
stopped supporting it.

Anyway, after I assign another pre-listed currency to
each of the self-entered ones that pop up the conversion
hangs and task manager says that Money is not responding.

Can you list the currencies which you are using in 99 that you need in
2005 - it would be worth checking whether the ones you want are in the later
version.

I have earlier attached a question about this to the
bottom of a post called "Conversion of 2003 file", but my
problem seems to be more complicated, so I thought I
would start again.

After installing and when converting my 99 file I first
encounted the problem message "A file needed to run the
Planner is either missing or corrupted". I followed the
advice and downloaded the registry edit for this at:
http://money.mvps.org/patches.htm and this seems to get
me passed that immediate problem.

However, I'm then asked to convert a whole lot of foreign
currencies from my old file that are no longer supported
(which seems to be a step backward with the new version
btw). After this it just hangs.

I have tried salvaging the file and have used both the
downloadable tool in knowledge base article 274584 and
the tool in the Money 2005. Both report no problems with
my old file.

I'm at a loss and will probably take it back to the shop
and go back to 99, unless anyone can help?
