I agree with Cal, in addition:

1) I you are not using the budget tools, then go through and remove each
account from the budget.
2) you do not tell what machine is so not able to make comments on that,
but I did find with 2003 that adding memory to my machine to take it
from 128MB to 384MB greatly improved speed. However, which version of
operating system will also impact that. I was on Windows 98 at the
time. Yes I know that the last 128MB prbably was not useful to Windows 98.

You probably do not want to "archive", despite it sounding helpful.

I've been using MSmoney since V98. I have upgraded several times and I am
now using 'MSmoney V2003'. It has slowed down till it is almost useless.
The size of the file for this current year is about 19000 K. Is there
anything in the software that I can turn off to improve its performance?
