 Re: Can't transfer money data file between computers Thanks, I think this may be the issue. I will try this and see if this fixes the problem!

Thanks I instlled Money 2005 directly from the CD, but the MyMoney.mny file was last updated by a updated version of Money 2005 which had converted the file to a new format. I just created a dummy file with the new installation and then let it update itself. Then it had no problem with the correct file. |

| Can't transfer money data file between computers I've tried, but failed, to transfer my money data file from my old computer to my new computer (old is ME, new is XP). No matter what I do I keep getting an error message "Money cannot locate [my file location and file name] or cannot open it." I've tried to make a backup copy from my old computer, and open this with the "restore backup" feature, but got the above message. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions? Thanks |
