You would want to edit out the transactions that overlap the
transactions already in the older file. Use a text editor such as
Notepad rather than a text processor.

Thanks for the tip, Cal! I assume you are referring to the QIF Export/Import
approach? I'll give that a shot.

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/178465 is an alternative you won't
like either.

You have ruled out the only way back, so you will have to continue with
M2008.

Can I downgrade a Money 2008 file back to 2007? I've been using 2007 for a
year, then gave 2008 a shot for 3 months, using the trial download. I didn't
find anything in the 2008 version that worth paying money for and want to go
back to 2007. Possible?

Going to the backup made during 2007-to-2008 switch is not an option, as I
have 3 months of transactions in the new file that I can't afford to manually
enter in the old one.
