Is their a way of viewing the categories in the Accoujnt Register

#4 12-08-2005, 03:11 AM

Thanks for all the great suggestions. I just wanted to at a glance review
each transaction and its category to see if I needed to do some editing.
The expansion to a three line presentation did that. For some reason,
initially I was stuck on having a column termed category, and was unable to
do that, but the three line presention accomplished what I needed. Thanks
to all who replied.

If you are changing categories to many transactions, try advanced
find and replace.

Make an extra copy or backup of your Money file first, in case you
want to undo something.

The performance problem is not the way the UI presents the data--the Money
grid vs. a one line display ala Excel--it's the underlying database. If you
have lots of changes to do to Category, have you looked at Find and Replace?

Thanks Carl. I did not know the Ctl+T trick, but it still takes too long to
make changes in the categories in a long list of transactions. Should be an
easier way. It is the transition into edit mode that takes the time. My
files are over 50 MB so it is understandable, but irritating nevertheless.

No. You can, however, customize a report.

You also can press Ctrl+T to toggle between single line and
multiline, which shows the category.

Is it possible to view the categories of the transactions in the account
register in a separate colum in place of one of the other colums. I know
you can double click on any specific transaction and bring up the details of
one transaction at a time. And of course turn on the forms portion of the
register. But I would like to view all of the category assignments at the
same time that I am viewing all of the transactions at a glance.
