Is PPC Money 2004 compatible with Money 2003?

#2 10-16-2004, 02:38 PM

Try this:

1. With the PPC in the cradle and ActiveSync running, start the
installation of Pocket Money for Money 2003 on the desktop.

2. Go through the normal install routine, following the prompts on the
desktop machine.

3. When the PPC pops up an error message, don't clear it. Instead,
open File Explorer on the PPC.

4. Using File Explorer on the PPC, find the sa1100 cab file.

5. When you find the file, choose copy.

6. Still using File Explorer on the PPC, browse to "My Device /Temp"
and paste the file in this new folder.

7. Once the file appears in this new folder, single tap the file. The
installation will begin on its own.

8. Close the error message from the original installation.

9. Remove the PPC from the cradle. Check the settings for the Money
Conduit in ActiveSync, place the PPC back into the cradle, and away
you go.

10. The exe file is placed in the PPC's windows directory by the
installation, find it, choose copy and then paste a shortcut to
"/Windows/Start Menu/Programs" and rename it "Microsoft Money".

FYI. It doesn't work.

A message pops up during setup saying I do not have Microsoft Money
installed so it will be installed as a standalone product and I will
need to reinstall it when I do have Microsoft Money installed.

It should - give it a try and let us know what happens.

I just bought a iPAQ which has Pocket PC 2003 installed, but this is not
compatible with PPC Money 2003.

Can I download and install PPC Money 2004 instead? Does it synchronize
with Money 2003 via ActiveSync?

Thanks.
