I *believe* that you can purchase a downloaded version of M+ (USA version)
over the internet by giving a USA address. As all of your transactions and
communications are by credit card and e-mail, using a non-functionning USA
address should not cause you (or MS) any problems (unless, of course, there
is a mailed rebate involved).

The problem is that your M+ data file is not backward compatible with the
older version in two separate ways. First, every Money version changes the
format slightly to one the old version won't play with. Second, Money files
from one localization--say M+ for UK IF THERE WERE ONE--don't work with
other localizations--in your case of the trial M+ for US.

At this point your only solution that saves all of the data you've collected
is finding a way to import a copy of M+ for US.

You likely could File|Export transaction data in Loose QIF from the M+ trial
and import it to the M05 UK. You would have to import all the exported
files--they export one account at a time--simultaneously to keep the
Transfers sane. There may be other issues going cross localization related
to default currencies or similar. I also don't know if File|Export will work
on an expired trial installation.

Default UK user in need of help

Hi, I am in the UK and have just finished my free trial of Money Plus
in the UK. I now realise I cannot buy it from the Microsoft site as I
don't live in the US or Peurto Rico. I bought and installed Money 2005
but it won't open the Money Plus file without asking for a password.
The file is NOT password protected. Any ideas? Other than buying Money
Plus from Amazon in the US, or exporting each account from Plus and
importing it into 2005?
Ta, Mark

PS I have just spoken to MS in the UK and the distinct impression is
that Plus will not be released in the UK at all.
