to support money 2000 or 2001 ... after reading all of this information, I
updated to money 2004 ... works fine ...

thanks, Jason

Just a recommendation to all potential money 2005 purchasers...don't do it!

Look around the message boards and you'll see countless examples of the
program ruining peoples data; unfortunately, I'm one of those people to.

Ever since i installed the program it has been updating my information on
MSN Money as well. Everything was fine until I wanted to stop doing this and
use Money 2005 independently of the web service. When I tried to erase the
data from MSN server I couldn't. Then, when Money 2005 opens up my file it
connects to the server and all hell breaks lose. My checking account goes
from 1,000+ to 8000-, my stock and bond purchases disappear, bills appear
that need paying yet they were due 5 months ago, etc.

Anyways, I've repeadetly tried to fix this problem but Msoft does not even
respond to continuous emails. Tech support is bad, online synchronization is
terrible, and money 2005 is the worst.

Stick with the older version and I'll never, ever buy another Msoft product
brand new until I read message boards like these to see what other people say
about the product.

Just some advice..take it to heart...seriously.
