Essentially, using the wrong currency breaks the association, allowing you
to reassociate it with the correct account?

Cal, I wasn't sure you continued to read old posts and didn't want to waste
time creating a response.

Microsoft's response was: Try method 3 in this article
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/910214/en-us.

Method 3 is:
If the steps that are listed in Method 1 does not resolve the issue, you can
change your account currency settings to force Money to enable you to
re-associate your account. To do this, follow these steps: 1. Start Money.
2. On the Account list , right-click the account that the statement is
incorrectly being imported into, and then click Account Details.
3. Change the Currency from US Dollars or your current currency selection to
anything else.
4. Click Done.
5. On the Tools menu, point to Internet Updates, and then click Update Now.
This will perform an update of your online quotes and exchange rates.
6. When the update is completed, close Money.
7. Start Money.
8. Try to import your online statement. You will receive a warning message
that states that the currencies do not mach. Click OK.
9. Import your statement again. You are prompted to select the account that
you want to import the information into.
10. When the import is completed, follow steps 2 through 4 to change your
currency back to US Dollars or your previous currency selection.

Thanks again for your help.

I kind of in the same situation as the original poster, my old bank
had the direct connection into money, but it was sold to an another
bank which does not. You have to do everything on their web site (they
do let you download a file (OFX) into money, but you do not have to
enable them in online services in money - this new bank is not even
listed there. I think the ordinal posted is in a similar situation if
I do not have things confused - theirs no third party thing with this
bank either.

Consider:

Add the same bank name back to that account. Tweak the account number by
adding an X or something like that. The bank in question is obviously still
enabled for online banking. Go to manage online services and discontinue
them for that bank. Beware that doing so affects other accounts, as well.
If you have any scheduled bills (apay or epay), cancel the bills before
discontinuing services.

After that, renew online banking services but pick advanced. Doing so
permits you to ignore specific accounts. Skip the problem account. After
completing setup, recreate any scheduled bills you canceled in the previous
step.

Oops. That's what I meant to type. Dang.

I would contact Microsoft to see if they have a solution for that.

If you bought Microsoft Money 2007, go to Help-> AboutMicrosoftMoney,
and write down the Serial number. Go to
http://support.microsoft.com/money and proceed from there. After
clicking Money 2007, note the Contacts item which will lead you to
"Contact a Support Professional by Email, Online, or Phone."

Cal, the account name is not blank, the financial institution is blank. The
software will not allow me to make the account name blank.

Let's be excessively clear: when you look at the box in the account
settings for that account, the account name box is blank. Right?

No Cal, deleting the financial institution did not correct the problem, I
even tried to close the account. After deleting the financial institution and
closing the account, I tried to dowload the financial information again and
the information was downloaded to the closed account without a financial
institution. The software did not request another acount into which to
download.

Thanks for the reply.

Blank the FI for the savings account. You tried that? Did that part
succeed, or what?

Hi, I just switched from Money 2004 to Money 2007. At one of my financial
institutions, I have both a savings and checking account that I have to
manually download directly from their site as they do not support direct
download into Money. When I was using Money 2004, I only downloaded into the
checking account and the download worked properly. Now that I'm using Money
2007, when I download my checking information, it downloads into my savings
account.

I've read through the other posts and tried deleting the financial
institution (in the account details), but it was to no avail. Does anyone
else have any thoughts? That it besides for creating a new account and moving
all the contents from the current account.

Thank you.
