Good. If you decide to investigate further, there is an OFX file
analyzer available for download. It is often tricky to understand
what is it that it does not like about a file, but sometimes it is
easy enough.

It may also be a matter of not having unique transaction IDs.
For example, if Money already imported transactions with that ID, it will
assume that a new transaction with the same ID is not actually "new"

The download is an "OFX" file. As further investigation, I removed the
transactions one by one and tried reloaded the file to determine which
transactions were suspect. After removing the first 12 transactions, the
trailing transactions started to appear. I then tried uploading the most
recent transactions since I first reported the problem. These new
transactions appear ok and I am able to review them. Enough time spent and I
will consider this problem fixed. I still think there are some phantom
transactions in the account/money database but hopefully they will not come
back to bite me later when running reports and such.

Thanks for your help.

Are you downloading from a web site? If so, QIF or OFX?

Looking at http://www.microsoft.com/money/bankonline.aspx is your
institution listed as "third party" or what?

It is an advanced account. I switched to an essential account and tried
downloading again to the newly created account. Problem still persists.
However, the number of transactions to review doubled. In the original
account it was 17. In the new account it is 34.

No. Problem is still persists.

Yes. Doesn't fix the problem.

- quote -

The transactions do not appear.

Disconnecting and reconnecting didn't work for the correct finiacial
institution.... However, I disconnected the account from the online services
and created another account but did not assign it a financial instituion. I
then did another download, selected the new account as the target and when
it asked where the account was held, I selected a different instituion.
The transactions then appeared in the new account assigned to a differenent
institution! For now, I will cut and past the transactions to the correct
account. This is kludge for until I figure something more permenant.

Thanks for you help!!!

I assume the statement had the same problem there.

This may or may not fix it for you, but it is worth a try:

In Internet Explorer delete your browser temporary files with
Tools-> InternetOptions-> DeleteFiles or
Tools-> InternetOptions-> Delete-> DeleteFiles.

Then in Money do File-> RepairMoneyFile-> QuickFileRepair again.

Then go to Tools-> Settings-> OnlineServiceSetting and
select ShowStandardizedPayeeNamesForWhichANameIsNotFound. This
is a global (inter-file) setting.

Download again.

I have not seen that problem. Couple of basic questions:

1) Is the account register an essential account or advanced?
2) Does switching the view change anything?
3) Have you tried a backup from much earlier than before the problem
appeared?
4) Do the transactions appear if you pull up a transaction report for that
account over the appropriate dates?
5) Sometimes, disconnecting the account from online services and then
reconnecting it to online services does some magic. Have you tried
that?

Other than that, I don't have much for you.
Good Luck.

Hello,

After downloading a statement from my finacial institution to MS Money 2005,
the account list screen shows that I have "Transactions to read: 34" but
when I go to review them, there are no transactions in the account register.
The account balance shows the correct value so I know there is something
there but I cannot view them. I have tried all of the following with no
success:
1. Repaired the money file
2. Downloaded the statement to another account to see if there was a problem
with the target account.
3. Selected "Read Statement" for the account in the account list screen.
4. Deleted the statement and downloaded again.
5. Updated to Money 2007
6. Restored from a backup file dating to before the problem appeared.

To visually examine the transactions, I downloaded the transactions as a csv
file and they look ok (valid acct #, date, amount, category).

I have successfully downloaded statements for years without a problem until
now.

Has anyone seen or fixed this problem before? Any help much appreciated.
