Default Re: Problem with Downloaded statements in Money 2006 identified - Need a Money fix?

This is really something the bank should fix.
They should not be including improper syntax in the download.
Money 2006 is strickter with respect to proper OFX (or QIF) formatting than
prior versions.

Default Problem with Downloaded statements in Money 2006 identified - Need a Money fix?

Based on the traffic in this group, many of you are struggling with the
issue of downloaded statements since upgrading to Money 2006. I have
had this problem since upgrading from 2005 to 2006 in October. I had
tried every solution identified from both Microsoft and others that
were lucky enough to get things to work, but was not able to get
anywhere. After a significant investment in time, I was finally able
to isolate the issue to downloaded statements that have a specific
character in them. In my case, these are always part of a credit
voucher where the dowloaded file has a <br> in the transaction
description line. Here's an example:

PCREDIT VOUCHER<br> TARGET 00018564

If I remove the <br> from the file. The download works fine. With the
<br> in the file the download occurs, but the "transactions to read"
are not visible. This same file downloaded fine in Money 2005, but
clearly is a problem in 2006. I have been able to download all my
files once I edit this tag, but I clearly this is an issue that is
caused by a change in the way Money handles QIF and OFX files. Hope
this helps those of you who need it. I'll also hope that someone from
Microsoft picks up this issue and fixes it..... Good Luck
