No. I did get a call last week to close my case number; I called them back
to reopen it. The poor guy that inherited my case tried all of the lame
troubleshooting. He found that you cannot even set up a vanguard account
directly in MSN. I get the same behavior one the software or without.

They say there is a patch. I said to leave the case open.

I have had zero enjoyment with this software upgrade; I will NOT forget
this when 2006 comes out. I'll save my money and buy a FPS.

Did you get the name/phone number of a person at level 2 or 3 support who
promised this and the internal defect number?

Tried that, too. No such luck; Ended up getting etherreal and sniffing the
connection when the error messages come up; Sent the error log to MS, and
they are going to release the patch in future fix..... just hasn't come in
yet.

I've tried w/ passport, w/out passport..... converted 2004 file, fresh
2005 clean install..... vanguard won't even set up when I go to MSN and
create a new account from there.... Vanguard website works just fine. very
frustrating.

What makes you are not? Are you referring to The Vanguard Group
("Vanguard Group, The")?

You cannot connect and get OFX data, I infer. I can.

Perhaps you could create a new file without a Passport for
experimentation. Try setting up an account for Vanguard online
access.

I cannot be the only one enduring this problem. Any ideas?

I cannot be the only one with problems connecting to vanguard brokerage since
the upgrade from 2004 to 2005 deluxe.

I've got an incident opened with MS, but they cannot commit to when it will
be 'pushed' via the mind-wretching 'update' process.

Does it take more noise from the masses? Please join in if you cannot get
this to work correctly. Unbelievable that it worked for 2004 and not for
2005.... it isn't like Vanguard isn't one of the largest brokerages.

I'm more ashamed of myself for having fought the good fight against the
Quicken bigots since 1998 (many of who are friends of mine). This one has
burned me big.
