That might not be a Windows Vista version, but the successor to
Windows Vista.

Hi Cal
I thought shortcuts in the Start menu inherited all the properties of the
icon in Program Files. When I went to the latter I discovered the missing
features and properties. Thanks for that. I can take if from there
I am not impressed with upgrading to 2005 when your compatriots are moaning
in the Newsgroup about 2007 and looking for 2008. I will upgrade when there
is a good post Vista version available in the UK.

Interesting observation.

The compatibility modes would be selected by browsing to msmoney.exe
in your install folder and right clicking that file for choices. You
reference http://support.microsoft.com/kb/931362/ . Did you find
msmoney.exe and right-click?

http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/Win...f5f101033.mspx
seems to discuss a different way.

You might check http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929427. Money 2003
is not specifically referenced, and that Vista update has probably
been applied anyway.

The latest version in the UK is Microsoft Money 2005, which is just
called Microsoft Money. microsoft.public.uk.money is a good source
of info on that.

Hi Cal
Thanks for your help which was very useful in a wider context. I plan to
implement DEP on all my machines with exclusion lists as required, as it is
hardware-supported.
I examined the DEP settings on both of my machines. They were exactly the
opposite of what would be expected.
On the Windows Ultimate desktop DEP was turned on, Money was not on the
excluded list. As I reported yesterday Money 2003 has always run perfectly
on this machine
On the troublesome laptop running Home Premium DEP was set to fun for
Windows only.

No progress with that excellent suggestion but it set me thinking.
Microsoft must have tested it and if it was not supposed to run it would
have been on the incompatibility check list when I upgraded. So I found KB
article 931362 on troubleshooting programs with Vista.
Going down their list of things to try:-
1. I don't have a compatibility mode option for Money 2003
2. I don't have an option to set it to run as administrator anywhere in the
right click options or properties
3. I ensured the security settings were not an obstacle by giving 'users'
full control
4. I found the solution on Step 3 in this article Disable Aero Glass. I
closed all gadgets on my aero glass side bar, so that it disappeared and
Money 2003 ran ok .

As I don't have a compatibility tab for this program the more flexible
solution for this program described in the KB article is not available to
me. I can live with this whilst I think about my upgrade options. Money 2008
must be coming soon

See if http://support.microsoft.com/kb/942485 method 2 helps.

Hi
I run this version perfectly satisfactorily in my Vista Ultimate
desktop.with my normal log on. No fiddling was required to get it to start.
It worked perfectly out of the box, just as in XP
Referring to emails on earlier versions in the Newsgroup, my data is in a
Documents folder on the D Drive well away from Vista, though it is secured.
In this machine SSL2 is not enabled

I have a newish laptop running Windows Home Premium with a similar
configuration for all my data on the D drive. I recently tried to open
Money for the first time since installation using a copy of the Money file
from my Vista Ultimate system.
The product closes down immediately on starting. with no warning, no Vista
looking for a solution etc
- I have enabled SSL2.
- I have reinstalled the product.
- I have tried to open the blank Money installation file
All to no effect.

When I look at the advanced properties for the icon the "Run as
Administrator" option is grayed out.in both machines.

When I log on to the laptop as "The Administrator " Money 2003 runs ok I was
able to set it to open the file in my personal user area. However following
this, when I logged to my usual account, which of course has administrator
privileges, nothing had changed from the above report

In the laptop the only product I have troubles with is Money 2003. All the
XP VB6 development tools and SQl run ok

I would be grateful for a clue on what I am missing to get Money 2003 to run
in my user account
