I'm wondering if Money 2006 fixed the following 2 problems:

1) Money 2005 Small Business version would not properly merge bank
information with payment received information. The result was two seperate
transactions. The fix according to Microsoft is to download bank information
into a cash account and then to transfer into the business account. Quite
unacceptable.

2) Money 2005 Small Business version would not properly synchronize business
accounts with the Pocket PC version. Again, Microsoft suggests using a cash
account to do this. This was not a practical solution.

I'd like to find out if anyone has success with either of these issues. I
downloaded the trial version a few months ago and it completely hosed my data
files! Evidentally, when you restore from backup, the next day the online
synchronization overwrites your data with old data. After a month, it
finally gives up and the online data expires allowing you to use Money again.
I'm not willing to download another trial and risk another 30 days of junk!
