I like

c) un-tick the ShowTransactionForms in the register. Enter the
transaction directly into the register. Make the Category be (at the
bottom of the list under SPECIAL) Transfer:nameOfOtherAccount.

I am running Microsoft Money 2005 UK Edition:

Could somebody please explain the differences between the following
transactions in the account register:

a) A basic transaction, using the Transfer tab in Show transaction forms to
transfer monies from a Current account into a Credit Card account

b) A transaction, using the Withdrawal tab and selecting the category as
Special > Credit Card Payment : My Credit Card (or Special > Transfer : My
Credit Card) to transfer monies from a Current account into a Credit Card
account

Some tutorials seem to advocate a, some b. The sample.mny file that came
with Money 2005 uses b. What exactly are the differences and
advantages/disadvantages of both of these examples?

Kind Thanks
