On #2, that's something I spotted a while ago. My post seems to have dropped
off the boards but it's mirrored here:

Basically, the answer is: it's a bug and, given that you've spotted a
workaround for it (posting the entry from the account being debited), the
probability of it being fixed is in the "slim to none" range.

We could perhaps play with that one a bit later in the week.

That one combines a number of things I don't know.

Thanks for the responses, Cal.

Considering this is an older version of Royal Bank's online banking software,
my guess is that it's an older version of the .qfx format that perhaps Money
doesn't support.


Any ideas on #2 from my original post? That's the one that bugs me the most.

If you want to remove the Passport from a file you may have to turn
off background banking at
Tools-> Settings-> AccessYourMoneyDataOnTheWeb and then
File-> PasswordManager you can choose to remove your Passport.

When you File-> Create-> New-> NewFile it creates a file. If you don't

Recently upgraded from Money 2004 to Money 2006 deluxe solely for the support
for the Bahamian dollar and I'm having some issues. Apologies if these have
been asked already; I went back a few pages and couldn't find the answers
elsewhere.

1) Fairly often, when I expand the Category dropdown, there is no vertical
scrollbar. I haven't pinpointed why this happens because it is intermittent.
Often, I can shutdown and restart Money and it will go away.

2) My base currency is US dollars. I have a mortgage account in Canadian
dollars and am paying it from a Canadian account. If I go to the mortgage
account and make a regular loan payment using the Canadian account, I get a
currency conversion dialog box that indicates that the account I'm paying the
mortgage with is in US dollars. I checked the account properties and that's
not the case. And when I make the payment from the Canadian account
(selecting Loan payment: mortgage as the category which can be an issue; see
#1 above), I don't have any problems. It's only when I try to make the
mortgage payment from the mortgage account.

3) How can I get Money to auto-sign-in like I did with Money 2004? Better
yet, how do I disconnect my file from Passport. I mistakenly set up my
account with Passport and now can't remove the connection. Incidentally, the
way you set up a file with Passport support is unintuitive. You have to
Decline a license agreement to trigger it. (Suppose I've just indirectly
admitted that I don't read license agreements.)

4) This is more of a minor annoyance because I don't do it much (read: at
all). When you start to create a new file, it seems there's no way to cancel
the process without shutting Money down completely.

5) Tried to e-mail Microsoft support and I can't find my Product ID. The
support page claims it's on the About Money box but it isn't on mine. Mine
has only a serial number. Against my better judgment, I have registered the
product.

6) For some reason, the Royal Bank in the Bahamas supports downloading to
Quicken but not Money. (Took them forever to support Money in Canada, too.)
At one point, I thought I could import the .qfx file with the Money Importer
but it doesn't seem to work.
