Thank you all for your advice.
I received by email last night from Microsoft the outlined procedure to
uninstall Money 2005 and reinstall Money 2002. The procedure would be the
same to go grom Money 2005 to any other year, just change the M10 to the
corresponding year's Money file code. Here is the procedure for you and
perhaps others who will want to revert to an earlier edition.

First, let's copy the .M10 file to a safe folder such as
"My Document". Though removing Money 2005 will not affect the data file
s, we still need to ensure the file is stored safely since it is the only
file that Money 2002 can read. To doing so, please follow the steps below:

Step 1: Save the .M10 file
===================
1. Please locate the .M10 file. If you cannot find it, please perform a
search for it.

2. Right-click the file and click "Copy".

3. Please go to "My Document", click "Edit" on the menu and click "Paste".

After we copy the Money 2002 file to "My Document", let's remove Money 2005
by performing the following steps:

Step 2: Remove Money 2005
=====================
1. Please click "Start" and click "Control Panel".

2. Double-click "Add or Remove Programs".

3. The "Add or Remove Programs" window will show. Please scroll down the list
to find "Microsoft Money 2005". Then, please high-light it.

4. Click the "Change/Remove" button.

5. Click "Yes" to confirm the operation.

Please wait for the un-installation completed. Then, please insert the Money
2002 CD and install it. By default, there is no special setting we need to
adjust. The installer will help us to do the rest.

After Money 2002 is installed completely, please go to "My Document" and
rename the .M10 file to .MNY. Double-click the file, Money 2002 will be
launched and the file should be read correctly.

There is a Knowledge Base article describes the similar situation:

to Money 98 or a later version:

No need. Just install them into different folders.

Thanks Bob,
Do I uninstall M2005 first before reinstalling M2002? I assume I do, but
want to verify.

When you upgraded to M2005 it made a backup of your M2002 file. You need to
reinstall M2002 and rename the *.m10 (if my maths are right) as *.mny.

Then the killer - you have to reinput all transactions since you moved to
M2005.

I don't like 2005 and want to reinstall 2002. I think I know how to do it
but am not sure so I would appreciate your thoughts. I just want my Cash
Flow back.
Thanks
