account.

'zactly the same way. I get the error message that should occur if I am
trying to import directly into a 401K account, however I am using their
suggestion to import into a cash account, but to no avail.

I can go to the Principal site and select history and download as MS Money
2000 or newer (something to that effect). I save the download and then
import it as a recovered account. How are you downloaded the file?

Yes. However, mine does allow download in the form of a Money file which
doesn't work either, even when I take MSoft's advice and import it into a
cash account.

I am going to import it into Quicken, then export it to Money. Quicken
seems to do a much better job with importing files than does Money.

Are you trying to download your Principal 401K through MSN Money? If that
is the case, I have contacted Principal. They do not allow download through
MSN Money. something to do with "Principal Finacial Group" and "THE
Principal Finacial Group".

I deleted the online account and created a new cash account. Now I get the
"header not recognized" error. So I found the associated fix from MSFT which
says to import it into a cash account - I am trying and that doesn't work
either.

Hate to whine, but man oh man, I never had problems like this with Quicken.
Wonder why MSFT has so many online and file import issues?

BTW, I left Quicken after 15+ years due to their rotten support for Turbo
Tax and their spyware of '04 Turbo Tax.

The first problem I had is that Money returns my login from the Principal
Financial Group online service as "Wrong password or PIN" which is not
correct. So I figured to heck with it, I'll download from the Principal
site. Using either the Money Download File Handler or even just the File
import, the Principal account is not listed. Is that because Money believes
it MUST have a password?

Never ending frustration from the password problems with M6.........
