A.C.,

At this point I would recommend a re-installation of your Money 2004
Deluxe. Let us know whether this fixes your problem or not! Thanks.

Regards,

I am using Money Deluxe 2004.

I double-clicked the sample.mny file, but all Money did was open and close
right away.

Any other suggestions?

Try opening the sample.mny file provided with the install. If Money
opens successfully, use File> > Open, select your data file, and see what
happens. Good Luck!

What program are you using?

When I double-click Money, it opens initially, but then after a couple of
seconds, it closes. This is before I see any logon or even any splash
screen. Money used to work on this computer, a few weeks ago, but now it
doesn't. I have installed several programs on the computer, most recently
Google Earth, but I don't know exactly when the program stopped working.
However, I believe it stopped working when I detached the external hard
drive where I had my primary Money file. I copied the Money file to the
internal hard drive on my laptop, but even if I double click that, Money
opens and then closes.
