Using MS money 2006. I have checking acct. with a local bank. My
mother-in-law’s (MiL) Checking and Savings accounts are at the same bank and
'linked' to my checking account so we can easily transfer funds between
accounts using the banks own Online Banking web site.

One problem is, when I create an account in Money for my own Checking acct.
and run the initial Online Update, Money is detecting my MiL's linked
Checking and Savings accounts as well. Money doesn't seem to give me any
choice about downloading them... it creates its own accounts for these two
linked accounts whether I want to include and track these accounts in Money
or not.

I do not need nor want her accounts to appear in Money, I only want my
checking account managed in Money. I eventually learned I can ‘Close’ these
two accounts in Money so they are at least hidden and not seen in my Account
List. However, they cannot be ‘Deleted’…, if you try to delete just ONE of
the accounts downloaded by Money from this bank, Money warns that ALL the
accounts at that bank will be deleted from Money. Money states to remove
these accounts from the Account List without deleting the other accounts, I
must select ‘Close’ account instead, which I did and all seemed well and good
for a couple months now.

However, I just discovered a problem. When I click the ‘Reports’ button then
select either ‘Spending by Category’ or ‘Spending by Payee’, Money displays a
hyper-linked message at the top of the report, “You have xx transactions,
totally $xx, that you don’t have assigned to categories.� When I click it to
see the transactions, they are transactions that belong to my MiL checking
account, which I have flagged as CLOSED in MS Money. These transactions are
screwing up my Reports. Any idea why they are showing and if there is
something I can do to tell Money to IGNORE these other two accounts? Thanks
folks, I greatly appreciate any advice.
