I am afraid you may be right, and fixing the transaction by hand may
be the easiest.

Does your broker let you limit the dates of the imported QIF, or
does that problem transactions continue for months? If you can limit
the dates, the problem would be less.

It would be possible to make a program/script to remove transactions
older than a specified date from the QIF file.

Every transaction.

I've already tryed it. The problem still remain.

So it is not price quotes, but transactions. Does the problem only
occurs on bonds, or does it occur on any QIF transaction download?

One possibility is to find or make a program/script that changes ","
to "." in the QIF file before you import to Money. For experiment,
see if changing "," to "." in the QIF file helps.

This is an example of imported transaction:

!Type:Invst
D09/03/2005
T341049,33
NSell
YALLIANZ AG
I97,86
Q3500
O1460,67
LCVE
M
^

In this case, Money ignore decimal and consider
T34104933
I9786
O146067

(usually T = Q*I+O, but I can set also T0 and Money accept it)

I checked my international settings and they are right.
Money doesn't work also if I change decimal point from "," to "."

I do not know about that patch.

How does Money work now without the patch? What price is being
downloaded? In the US version, the price is a percent of "par" or
face value. A bond worth 800 with a face value of 1000 would have
price 80. To enter a bond purchased at the that price, one would
enter Quantity 1000 with Total 800. It is usually best Money compute
the price.

If things work differently for you, it may be possible to adjust the
Buy transaction to work around the problem.

I can't retrieve a patch for this bug:
"When you import your brokerage's statement into Money 2001, you may
notice exorbitant (and inaccurate) numbers. The value of bond purchases
may be multiplied by 100. Consequently, you'll get an incorrect value in
the register's total."

It was released by Microsoft with number release 25867
( http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/r...eleaseid=25867 ), but I
can't retrieve it.

I know that Money 2000 is an older version, but in Italy it's the last one
released!

Thank you very much and sorry for my english...

You might need to check with Microsoft in Italy.

I'm betting that Microsoft considers any version of M2K unsupported, even if
it's an orphaned version like the Italian one. This seems sad and wrong, but
there may not be much you can do about it but suffer and remember for the
next time you face a choice of buying something from Microsoft or somebody
else.
