I am in the habit of selecting "No, do not update my account. I will
make any necessary changes myself." I wish I could change the
default on that radio button.

I had it on in the first week and it downloaded this thing right away. I
didn't view that as a good sign about things to come.

It is even worse than that. If you accept the dividend and your
investment account is updated via online updates, it will remove the
dividends with 'remove shares' since you will have too much in your
account with the future reinvestment.

Quick Fix Engineering. And AFAIK, the the first update happened just
days after 2005 was released.

I stand corrected by Michael's answer. So, install M05 and hack the registry
key--it's my policy not to aid and abet registry hacking, if you know enough
to do this safely you can probably figure it out. Then NEVER let Money05
near an Internet connection or it will "fix" this for you.

Leave out the "Program Settings" and I found the check boxes. They are
checked so I guess I have to wait for a dividend date to come due and see
what happens. Thanks for the information. I knew something was in there
somewhere!!

There was a registry hack that allowed the two pulldowns in M05, Dick, but
the first QFE removed it.......

See
Tools-> Settings-> ProgramSettings-> InvestmentSettings-> PortfolioManager-NotifyMeOfDividendsForMyHoldings

Let us know if that does it for you or not.

One thing I have found is that the date may not match the actual pay
date, so take care when you match things up.

#8 11-12-2004, 04:44 PM

Permit me to doubt that you have two pulldowns on your home M05 machine.
Could you post a screenshot? If so, you have a miracle since nobody else has
figured out--and I spent several hours hacking registry and so forth--how to
do this in M05.

I know M05 removed the option - that is what we are complaining about. We do
not like the single list. My point was that on my home machine, with M05, I
still have two lists. Therefore, there is still some switch somewhere that
tells my home machine to continue to show two lists.

It's a whole lot simpler than you make it out to be. M04 has the option
(Tools|Options
|Categories|Use single list...) and M05 removed the option and selected the
single list.

I am having the same problem of just a single list of Categories - including
Sub-Categories. I prefer the two separate lists. Anyway, I transport my
Money file back and forth from home to the office. On my home machine with
Money 2005 I still have two separate lists - That machine I upgraded from
3004 to 2005. In the office I have only the single list - This one I
installed new.

Therefore, somehow on my home machine it "remembered" that I wanted two
lists. You are correct. There does not seem to be any switch in 2005 to
select 2 lists. I compared the Register on my home machine and my office
machine and the entries dealing with Categores are coded the same. But
somewhere there is something that is telling my home machine to make two
lists.

Any help from anyone would be appreciated.

If this were the only issue with M05, I might not have done the 30DMBG drill
and reverted to M04.

p.s., I don't know about the second question. But I don't think they've
added anything to allow scheduling of any of the Investment transactions
besides Buys.
