Thanks for the quick reply JB.

The file in question is on one of my hard drives.
I did right click the file to check when I was trying to run it and it is
not set as read only.

Let Money 2005 create a new Money file, clicking Decline in the
process. It will do an update. Close Money. Then open Money and
check Help-> About... says you then have version 14.0.*.1105.

Then you should be able to open or restore your existing files.

Did you restore your money file from a CD backup? If so, you may need
to right-click on the file, select Properties, and clear the Read-Only
check box under Attributes. Hope this helps.

Regards,
JB

Default money 2005 file read only

Eight weeks ago I reinstalled my computer and reinstalled money 2005.

When I went to run my money file it said that the file had to be converted.
The conversion did not work as money said the file was read only. The said
file is not read only. I am at a loss. I do not want to start all over again
and I wondered why money is saying this and what I could so to sort out this
problem.

Any help and advice would be great.

NIK
