I finally got it straight.

I could not change the financial institution of the bank account from MSN
Bill pay to my bank. I exported the account, then deleted the old account. I
then imported the account and was able to set up the online billpay from the
bank. The bank also had to make a change on their end somewhere to allow
Money to recognize they were a billpay provider. Backups were made each step
of the way to make sure I could recover. Now I just have to delete some
duplicate transactions to the accounts that were downloaded in error.
Otherwise everything is working fine.

Thanks to every one that offered solutions.

I assume the new account is the one associated with your bank and not
with MSN Bill Pay. If so, are you selecting this new account (checking
#2) when entering the bill payment?

Change the bank for the account? Backup Money and test restoring from the
backup, before you do that.

I haven't merged them, that I know of. I originally set up the account to
use MSN Billpay when I originally started to use Money. The properties for
the account show the financial institution to be Billpay.

Now I want to use my banks services as it is cheaper. I can connect to the
bank and download any transaction that it processes, but when ever I try to
pay a bill Money defaults to using MSN Billpay. The downloaded transaction
go to a new account - checking #2.

I have disabled MSN Bill Pay services so when I try to pay a bill Money
sends me to MSN Bill pay to complete the transaction.

A few months ago I lost the Billpay service and spent about 3 hours on the
phone with Microsoft. At that time I had a new account set up by Money that
I had to download all my transaction into then delete the old account. I
hope I don't have to do that aging.

Thank for the help.

Lou,

Sounds like you merged your bank account with your bill pay account!

I would recommend disabling then re-enabling (without merge) online
services for the account.

Post back with any problems or questions. Not sure how any of the
recent MSN Bill Pay changes may have affected these types of
situations!

Regards,
JB

I'm using Money 2005 and MSN Bill Pay. I want to use my bank's service
instead. I can't get MSN Billpay off my checking account so I can pay my
bills directly through my banks services.

How do I do it?

Thanks,

Lou
