 Re: Not upgrading to MS$ 2005 Cause issue later? Well, I guess I will have to upgrade to avoid any issues. Though, I am going to hang on to MS 2004 until one of bank downloads stop working. I just hate it when I am forced to upgrade when the upgraded s/w does not provide any value. I guess this 'subscription based' services will be abused by many.

I want to add one other potential issue: - As the version in use becomes further back-level, the odds that an OS or other upgrade irretrievably breaks it increase. Your copy of M04 may not work on Windows2012 (or with IE 7, for that matter).

| Re: Not upgrading to MS$ 2005 Cause issue later? If you have '04 Deluxe, you have no problems. If you have '04 Standard, stock price updates may have expired. I don't recall if that was a 1 year or a 2 year subscription in the license. Deluxe was a 3 year subscription. ('05 Deluxe is 2 year.) Nothing else is lost, to my knowledge. -- Chris Cowles, Gainesville, FL "masai" <masai_chadi[at]hotmail.com> wrote in message news  pshwbhicgdvcnul[at]chets.gv.shawcable.net...- quote - > Since MS Money 2005 does not seem to provide any new functionality or > significant enhancements I am thinking of not updating my MS Money 2004 > version.

| Re: Not upgrading to MS$ 2005 Cause issue later? Known issues: - Support for older versions ends sooner, including such services as quotes download. - Older versions will get "unsupported" sooner by FIs and so forth. - Newly discovered issues will not get fixed. Not that they did when the version was still current. Potential issues: - If an upgrade comes out that is compelling--the odds on this do not look good to me unless something radically changes in how Microsoft views the product and the market--data upgrades may be more problematic depending on how far back-level your data is. - The "learning curve" for such an upgrade grows as a function of the number of versions you are jumping. I'll be interested to see what others come in with.
