Do it directly with Citibank and decline the MSN service.

If this "this" is avoiding duplicates and keeping your other
accounts off of MSN while still downloading from Citibank via MSN, I
think Money 2007 is supposed to be better at that. You could try the
trial.

Sure. Either download the OFX file from the Citibank website into
Money, or choose a different bank which provides direct OFX
downloads.

Money is getting to be beyond useless.

I opened two new citibank accounts and all I wanted to do was add them,
and the internet login information, to money 2006.

First of all, it appears to be IMPOSSIBLE to do this without using
MSN's service, which I don't really want to do. I might be able to live
with that, however, in doing its little synchronization, money
duplicates hundreds of transactions across half a dozen accounts,
rendering my file completely useless.

I have restored from a backup and tried to get around this problem at
least a dozen times, to no avail. Anyone have any ideas how I might
avoid this?

I considered just jumping ship to Quicken but their traslation tool
doesn't appear to migrate money files to the newest version of quicken.
