OK thanks, but the file would not be accessed simultaneously. (1 PC -
multiple users) I think the solution for my wife and I to share the same file
is to create a new user account in XP and run the application/file from
there.

Money is not a multi-user program. You definitely cannot have two users
accessing simultaneously and even with two users deliberately making sure
that the other isn't accessing the money files is fraught!

I do not respond to any emails that I have not specifically asked for.

All,
Having problems sharing a file with another user on the same computer. The
second user cannot open the file. An error message reports that the file is
in use or the drive is protected. I moved the file to the shared documents
folder and ensured that all permissions are set to allow access. I've set the
properties within Money to share the file with another user having a passport
account. Still no luck. Is this something inherent to only the web trial
version?
Thanks,
Mike
