I believe it just hides it. If you want to remove it then you might need to
export your accounts and then import them into a clean file. That'll
definitely remove the information.

But will it remove all that business related Money data from the file in a
"pure" conversion process or does it just ignore the business data in the
Money file?

I am looking for a process to totally remove/convert the file from a Money
Deluxe/Business file to just a pure Deluxe file. I don't need the
functionality of going back to the Business version of Money anytime down the
road. I have a lot of business data within the data file that I want to be
removed during the conversion process to make the data file more streamlined
to only the personal data aspect associated to Money in the form of Money
Deluxe or Money Premium.

Please advise. Thanks.

Yes it will convert OK, you get a warning that "this file has been used in a
business package and you will lose that" (or similar). I can't remember what
happens to business only accounts. I guess they are carried forward unless
you delete them, but I think you might need to keep that info around for
some years for audit purposes.

I have Money 2003 Deluxe & Business which in the beginning I used to manage
some aspects of my business. Since I have stopped using Money for my
business and just use Money for my personal finance aspects.

My question to everyone is does Money 2005 Premium or Deluxe convert the
original 2003 Deluxe & Business data file into just a standard file without
all the Business data? I don't need any of that business related data going
forward and don't want my money file to continue to carry that bloat if it is
not required or a way to remove it during the conversion/upgrade process.

Thanks and any help is appreciated.
