Issues with upgrade from Money 2006 to Money Plus

#4 11-09-2007, 05:25 PM

PROBLEM RESOLVED!

The opening page of Money has a tick box that says:

I want to sign in to Money directly, without access to all online services.

I ticked this box and the ofx file could be imported normally

No idea why it works, but it does

Fortis Bank in Belgium

Yes the bank provides ofx files for downloading in Money that I could always

import without problems in Money 2006

Is it maybe important to know I am running a Dutch version of Windows XP?

Care to name the bank?

Is it an OFX file you are downloading via the bank's website, or
what?

The file you attempted to import appears to be invalid or contains corrupt
data. Please download the file again. If the problem continues contact your
financial institution.

Maybe you mean Money 2005.

I have been working satisfactorily with Money 2006 until I was forced by
Microsoft to upgrade to Money Plus. This works fine except for two issues:

1. Every time I start Money Plus I get a message that a program update needs
to be installed. If I click OK Money is stopped and it looks as if updates
are being downloaded. However this ends with the message that the update is
already running. This is not a real problem as I can work by clicking cancel.
However I do not know which update I am now missing.

2. Importing bank statements in the form of ofx files always went fine in
Money 2006, but no longer works with Money Plus which states that the file is
corrupt.

I tried all of the items suggested in the solutions center, but without
success

Any views why this is? Is issue 2 related to issue 1?
