In M06: Tools-> Settings-> BackupOptions I suggest checking x Automatically backup my Money file every time I close Money Save in [a place on your hard drive ] x Ask me before backing up each time x Compress Backup Files Keep only the _20_most recent backup files [adjust to taste] Without addressing all of your details, go as far as you can with AccountList-> MergeDuplicateAccounts. If you don't understand why you would want to have a cash account to go with an investment account, let us know. |

| multiple empty accounts showed up I have three accounts with Broker X, which I've tracked for some time with Money (2006 Premium). Only one of them was set up for automatic updates. As soon as I enabled the other two for automatic updates, Money created SEVEN new empty accounts ("Broker X Cash Account", "Broker X Cash Account #2", ... "Broker X Margin Account", etc.) separate from the two I wanted to connect. Next thing I know, I have NINE pending statements for these seven imaginary and empty accounts, displaying "bank balance" totalling somewhere in the range of $200,000! Good grief! To quote Slim Pickens, What in the Wide Wide World of Sports is a-goin' on here? |
