Cal,

I've tried a new import in another environment (Windows 2000 with Money
2006) but and I only tried the file with the two transactions.
Now it worked fine, I see the two transactions.
When I import another OFX I already had trouble with from the beginning I
was not able to see the transactions.

What I mean to say is that it is not predictable if the OFX file will import
the way it should, I'm sure it has nothing to do with the syntax of this file.

I just can't explain why one time it does import right and the next time
(other environment) it doesn't.
I've read the threads above of the other users and I also beleive there is a
problem in Money 2006.

I tried the checker, files are allright:
*** All line number references do not include header lines ***
***OFX 1.02 Add ~10
***OFX 2.0 Add ~2

I would add the two missing transactions to the register manually. I
don't know why they were not processed in. Perhaps there was some
defect in how those records were in the OFX file. Let's hope that
does not recur.

And that occurs for the new file. Strange.

There is an OFX file syntax checker available.

See http://www.microsoft.com/money/fi/tools.mspx#ofx

Cal,

You're right, I'm using the Advanced Register.
When I look in the OFX file I see two transactions. I don't see them back in
the record list of the bankaccount.
The Bank Balance is updated by the two transactions which I don't see.

As I described I have trouble with 3 of the 4 accounts.
The one wich was working is having the trouble I'm describing now.

By balance, I suspect you mean the downloaded balance reported by
the bank that is shown on the left. That is controlled by a field
that the bank can put into the OFX file. Not all do.

It could be that there were no new transactions. Sometimes the
balance information is delayed from the transactions being available
for downloading.

- quote -

I am not sure what you mean when you say Bank Balance or latest
record.

But whatever you mean, there could be a missing transaction or a
duplicated transaction. There could be a future-dated transaction.
There could be an un-cleared transaction that you entered. I am
assuming you are running using the "advanced" register.

- quote -

I'm sorry, didn't work.
Just imported a new OFX to the account which did work with new records.
Now I see the balance changed but no new items to review.

That is also something I don't understand. How can the Bank Balance be
different than the latest record.

I also have the same problem.
I use Money 2006 (15.0.120.513) and a new data file.

I imported 4 different OFX files (3x ABN-AMRO and 1x Postbank, both Dutch).
All 4 showed Downloaded: date, balance and items to review (xxx).
Only one of them actually showed the records. (1x ABN-AMRO)
The other three have the same problem as described above.

I have tried importing the ofx file into a blank new data file with no luck.
I als removed the quotes as suggested and that made no differenc either.

THanks...

Did you try removing the quotes from the names and memos before importing?

If that resolves it, contact your bank to let them know that quotes
shouldn't be used.

Are you restoring your old data file or using a blank, brand new data file
when you reinstall Money? I think this is a corrupted data file. Try
starting from a BLANK data file as Cal suggested in one of his posts, and
see if the OFX file loads in then.

Hi Cal...

Tried most of your suggestions. I delete cookies amd temp internet files
regularly... So it's not an issue. I totally wiped my hard drive and
reinstalled XP pro and money and the same problem. Starting to think it may
be a hardware problem, but I don't see how it could be...

Thanks for the suggestions.

You have tried a lot of things. Much of this is repetition and it
may not help, but here goes:

Make an XP restore point with
File-> Programs-> SystemTools-> SystemRestore in case this does not
help, and you want your cookies back.

In IE6 delete your browser temporary files with
Tools-> InternetOptions-> DeleteFiles.

IE6 Tools-> InternetOptions-> DeleteCookies.

Then in Money do File-> RepairMoneyFile-> QuickFileRepair for good
measure.

Another thing I would try is to create a I would try creating a new
XP user with Administrator privilege. Switch to that user and start
Money with a new blank file (click Decline). Can you File-> Import
the OFX into that new file successfully?

The theory is that if the problem is an IE6 setting, you will get
default settings for the new user. If you succeed this way, it
would accomplish the download, and it would point toward the reason
the other did not work. You can delete the new user later, and
your regular IE6 settings will not have been changed.

If that does not do it, I would consider reinstalling Money 2006
into a different folder/directory.

Hi Cal

I just copied your text and made an OFX file... Imported it into a new
money file and I see 5 transactions to be reviewed. However, the
transactions do not show up in the register. Did they show up for you? Or
did you just see them in the review part at the top left?

Thanks

Just as an added note....

I installed Money 2006 on my laptop and tried downloading the OFX file from
my bank and the same problem...

Hi Mark,

Well I removerd the "s from all the memo feilds and still no entries in the
register. I did see items to be read and the bank balance, which were both
correct. The local balance was incorrect and no transactions listed in the
register.

All Of the FITID were unique...

I attempted the import with both my normal money file and a new money file.
Both failed. I have also completely wiped my system and reinstalled XP Pro
SP2 and Money 2006 and still nothing.

I called MS support and they went thru some different things and saw nothing
wrong and told me it was my bank. My bank's tech tested a OFX file with
Money 2006 and it work for him. He also said they havent received any other
complaints... I know I am not crazy! They probably haven't gotten many
complaints since the version is so new. Most people haven't upgradedyet or
don't plan on it.

Thanks for your suggestions. I am not sure what to do from here except go
back to Money 2005 and try to get my "money" back...lol.

In my case, I had the same problem. I could take a good backup and get the
problem with a download from Wells Fargo They also make QIF files, and the
QIF file had the same problem. There were 10 transactions in the QIF file
- I edited that to make ten files, each with 1 QIF transaction. That
enabled me to see that it was credit card payments made via a scheduled
transaction that were causing the problem. I changed the category on those
transactions, and everything got better.

Thus, at least for me, it appears to be a corrupted transaction, nothing to
do with the the downloaded file, the cache, or any of the other stuff that
Microsoft talks about.

Note that once the Money file starts having the problem, I think you have
to go back to a previous backup that did not have the problem and change
the transaction category there.
