Cal,
Thanks for the additional detail on how to do the export/imort routine.

If you want to do the QIF export/import, I would follow the steps
in http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;178830
except in the first step 4, I would suggest this: start the name of
the QIF file for the investment accounts with an underscore (_),
and start the name of QIF files for the cash accounts associated
with the investments with a letter. Thus you might have
_BrownInvestment.qif and BrownInvestmentCash.qif. This would cause
the investment account to be processed prior to the associated cash
account. When the BrownInvestment got created, you would specify
that you want to track the cash transactions. Then specify that
the cash transactions account for BrownInvestment was where the
BrownInvestmentCash.qif transactions get sent.

Then File-> Import ALL AT ONCE using Ctrl+<click> to select files.
Specify "New or Recovered" account when asked.

Of course you will use a different filename for the new file, and
you will have both versions to choose from when done. I would also
set up the backups to make sure they are using different names.

Cal,
That is the same salv.exe that I used. I guess I will have to export/import
my various accounts to overcome this damage.

Art,
Thanks for the input, but I was trying to change the category of an
electronic transfer from a broker account (that is not part of my MS Money
file) into my bank account. Sometimes that transfer is partly non-taxable
income, but MS Money automatically uses the last category to assign a
category for the new transaction.

Tom - If you are using the banks electronic payment as connected to Money
then only certain fields can be changed. The unchangeable fields are grayed
out to indicate you can not change them.

I have found that if I set up a bill pay then I am not allowed to change any
entry except the comments field and the category.

Not certain if this is you issue.

You can install Money 2007, including trial. It would typically be
in "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Money 2007\MNYCoreFiles"

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/902466/en-us
has a link labeled
"Download the M06-Repair.exe package now."

Cal,
Where can I get salv.exe from newer version? I used version 15.0.0.513 of
salv.exe for my repairs so far.

You could try the salv.exe from a newer version.

Hello,
One of my MS Money files has some entries that cannot be changed. If I try
to change them I get a message that says: "This transaction cannot be
entered. Money could not write to your Money file. The operation cannot be
performed or another application finished the task before you . Please try
again."

This only happens with some of my entries, not all. (The entries were
downloaded from a banking site, but other downloaded entries are not
affected.)

I have used the repair utility at two levels and the problem persists. By
internet searching I have found reference to a third, deeper level of
repair, but I cannot find the software needed to try that fix.

Any suggestions?

TIA,
Tom
