Default Re: Displaying a Meaningful Account Name

Sure, you can rename any account. Just go to the account list and click to
open the account, then click on Change Account Settings (in left side bar)
and rename the account. Then click on Done at the bottom of that screen.

OK, that works.

Is there any way to change the Account name that Money assigned -
Savings-#1 - to something more meaningful to me? Say, like "Savings for Car
Repairs"?

Check SortAccountListBy-> ShowAccountNumbers to display the last 4
digits of the account numbers.

Default Displaying a Meaningful Account Name

Trying 2006 Deluxe Trial - I'm wondering if Money can be set up to display
the Account Number or Abbreviation in the Account List instead of the Account
Name ?
I have five "sub-savings" accounts at my bank to allow me to save for
different goals (car repairs, tuition, Christmas, etc.). When I did the
initial account download from my bank, Money assigned Account Names that
don't correspond with the account numbers my bank uses. For example, Money
renamed my "S2.3" account to "Savings-#1". As you can imagine, I have enough
accounts that it will be difficult to keep track of them now.
