| You have just mentioned the most glaring negative "feature" of Money - the rotten Help documentation. I used Quicken for 16 years so knew a lot about each release. Changing to Money took effort and I expected that, but was slackjawed, knocked off of my chair with the absolutely rotten Help. Frequent Flyer is what brought me to this forum as well. How can you have a function and not document it to at least show in an index and glossary? Perhaps it will show up if I knew how to spell it in Hindi. ;-{P -- MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum SLI AMD64 Athlon 3800+ x2 GSkill 4 x 1GB DDR SATA:WD 74GB 10,000RPM;2x WD 80GB 7,200RPM eVGA GeForce 7800 GT 256MB Enermax 600W ATX Power Supply ThermalTake VA8000 Case "- Bobb -" wrote: - quote - > While manually updating my prices for last week (when price server > wasn't working) and running a report for June, I noticed a Frequent > Flyer Miles item as an option of the report .

| While manually updating my prices for last week (when price server wasn't working) and running a report for June, I noticed a Frequent Flyer Miles item as an option of the report . I didn't know I could track FF miles, so I clicked HELP - and entered - Frequent flyer - no hits. I noticed a " contact us " link in the bottom of the now useless help window so I clicked it. It brought me to the money support page - I clicked M2006 and got here: http://support.microsoft.com/oas/def...9&gprid=321298 I saw that to chat with someone , the wait time was 12 minutes, 49 seconds. Hmmmm I had never used any of this - interesting. I went back to the kitchen for a few minutes and when I returned. the hold time was: 12 minutes, 49 seconds. I left that internet screen open . It's been about 20 minutes - guess what the hold time is: You're right - 12 minutes, 49 seconds ( yes I've refreshed, closed/reopened - still 12 minutes, 49 seconds) The point of this: if you ARE ever holding for live support , don't believe what it says on the screen - I know that USUALLY it's a guess, but in their case it seems a VERY poor one. Depends on avg call vs " the guy on the line now". I just tried one last time - now it shows Wait time: 25 minutes, 38 seconds - seems more like it. |
