Default Re: Microsoft Money Essentials, problems restoring

I think it's time for a FAQ entry on this.

Opening legacy Money files is not essential enough for Money Essential
(MEss).

Money Essentials will not read your 2004 file. If you can install
Money 2007 on the laptop with your installation CD, that may do it.
Otherwise you will need Money Deluxe 2007 or above to read that
file.

So the Money Essentials install is not going to be of use to you.

Default Microsoft Money Essentials, problems restoring

I just got a new laptop with Money Essentials on it. I backed up my Money
2004 file from my old computer onto a CD and tried to import it into Money
Essentials and it says it can't do it because it's a different version. Am I
going to lose all my data and have to start over? Any help would be
appreciated

Thanks!
