Default Re: Account won't open in Money 2005

Glad to hear that. Until you are "convinced" that all is well I suggest you
implement a rigorous backup regime, perhaps using your hard disk and backing
up to a different file name every day!

Thanks, Bob. I had searched previously and it's not present. ... But, problem
solved! I ran Money "Quick File Repair" for about the fifth time in the past
four days, and it fixed the problem this time. Go figure. ... thanks to
everyone for their help.

It is possible that the sample.mny file is elsewhere. Try doing a search
(Start > Search) for a file ending in .mny and see if that finds it.

Chris, thanks for replying. Not sure how to do this ... looked in Money help
and couldn't find the topic ... there is no sample.mny file in my program
file folder, as the Money user guide says there should be, and I couldn't
find anything about it in the MS knowledge bank ... Can you advise what I
would do here that might help? Thanks.

Did you try to update MS Money using the sample data file?

Default Account won't open in Money 2005

When I launched Money 2005, it could not find my data file, which was indeed
missing from its proper folder. I was able to successfully restore from the
backup. All appeared well. Now, one of the five accounts in my Account List
will not open. When I click on the problem account in the Account List, the
screen simply refreshes and returns to the Account List Screen. All other
accounts open correctly.

I tried repairing the data file. Money said their were no problems to
repair, but the one account still will not open. Restoring again from the
backup does not solve, either.

I need the information in this account. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
