Unlikely. Use the newly reinstalled Money 2000 to create a new file. Ignore
passport because it's not relevant for this. Update online. It should
download some program updates. After installing update, exit Money, restart.
Try to open old data file again.

I am having the same problem. Got a new computer and reinstalled Money 2000.
uploaded floppy backup files and typed in the pass word which the prompt
will not accept. What gives here? I positively absolutely know the pass word
is correct. Could this be something the I-T guy here at work get past our
security system, etc.?

I suspect one got updated by automatic download and the other did not.
Therefore they're not exactly the same version.

On the laptop, open the sample file or create a new one. Connect to the
internet and let Money update (download quotes). If the laptop version does
not have the most recent program updates, it should download them. The
laptop and desktop probably will match, then. As Dick advised, look at
Help> About to confirm.

If that happens, then try to restore the desktop version on the laptop.

I don't know if Microsoft continues to update older program versions after
online updates have expired according to the terms in the license agreement.

You're 110% sure of that? Open the sample file stored in the installation
folder on each machine. Got to Help|About. Compare the version numbers.

An older version of Money cannot make sense of a file produced by a
newer version.

I have Microsoft Money 2001. I have two machines desk top and laptop. On my

click on it. I can see Money restoring the file. It asks for pass word I put
it in but it says incorrect pass word. I am baffled, How can i be working
with the same pass word in desktop but would not accept in Lap top. Please
help.
