I couldn't agree more. Microsoft products have gone downhill since Windows
95 and Office 97.

IF you have a message for "Redmond", I suggest you direct it to them, rather
than spouting vituperative comments on a user group which "Redmond" probably
monitors infrequently, if at all.

No one from MS ever responds on this forum. It essentially is to get work
arounds from users that previously experienced problems and are willing to
share solutions or explain particular details. If your desire is an actual
code fix, you won't find any satisfaction here.

Default Thanks for nothing

About a month ago I posted a simple query here. The transaction data from my
PNC account was being cut off in the new version of Money. Could something
be done.

The replies were derision from troll Chris Cowels and half assed semi
workarounds from the so called MVPs.

It took me 2 minutes to open the OFX file and find that the useful data
describing the transaction was right there in a Memo field. For reasons
passing understanding this field is inaccessible in Money and thus my
transactions are doomed to the obscurity of the first 20 gibberish digits.

Even a crappy Java program like MoneyDance can handle this.

As a .Net developer of 7 years I normally cheerlead for MS but I've been
disappointed by the shoddy crap coming from Redmond in recent years. All the
money and coders with doctorates should be able to do better. Get your act
together.
