It can schedule and issue reminders quite reliably. Sadly, it can't replace
your checkbook worth a d***.

Ebay? Save for the blinking MoneyExpress icon, M04 is pretty good. Not
perfect, by a long shot. Better than M05 by a bunch. Better than the
versions that came before, excluding possibly M97.

If all you want is the blinking reminder of a calendar scheduled event, do
you have Outlook?

Thanks for the replies...The bill section is primarily all I use in money -
and I really relied on that reminder feature so that I was never late in
paying a bill. Wished I had the older version back. (Came bundled with
another PC) Can I still get an older version compatible w/ XP?? If so, where?

The feature may have "been there." But if it was, it was broken. There has
been speculation that this is one reason MoneyExpress was completely removed
from M05. This line of thinking is that it was easier to remove than fix.

Yes, I am referring to Money Express - the icon in an earlier version use to
blink red when a payment was nearing due. Is the bliking feature not in 2004?

I believe you're thinking of Money Express -- not there in 2005, but is
there in 2004.

In an earlier version (can't remember which one) the money icon in the lower
right task bar blinked red when there was a bill due. Does the 2004 version
not do that?? I've got the option marked to remind me but nothing "reminds"
me.
