Default Re: Combining 2 MNY files on 2 computers

Beware also that combining accounts via QIF export/import as Cal suggests is
not a 100% solution. If you have things like loan accounts or payee or
account details (e.g., addresses, telephone numbers, web site references,
investment price history, account login details) or home inventory or lots
of similar non-transaction information, QIF export/import will leave them
behind. The QIF route is all there is and it's surely better than nothing,
but there are many things it will not do.

To merge or combine Money file, make a copy of the more complex
account using the operating system. Give that file a new name to
represent the shared accounts. Export each account that you want to
merge from the other file (the least complex). Use loose qif.

Import the files all at once into the now-shared account. Use
Cntl-click to select files for the single import.

Default Combining 2 MNY files on 2 computers

I started using MS Money on one computer for certain accounts and then later
started using MS Money on another computer for other accounts. I can access
both MNY files on the home network but only one at a time.
Is there a way to combine both .mny files so that I have access to all at
the same time?
