I suggest you experiment with editing down QIF files. Keep extra
copies/backups to undo. It is not as bad as I feel you think it is.

Thanks for the reply. I was afraid there was no easy way to do this.

I think I shall have to print out the various accounts and then reinsert
them into one of the two files and make it the control file.

Thanks.

No easy solution in retrospect. You could File-> Export a loose QIF
from one file, edit out any duplicates with a text editor such as
Notepad, and File-> Import the edited QIF file.

There is no easy way to do this. There aren't even many hard ones. Have you
already done this or are you only pondering a requirement to do it?

Default Sync Money Files

I have a laptop and desktop, both running Money 07.

I have been away from home for three months and have been keeping my
expenses in Money on my laptop. My wife has been keeping our records on the
desktop. My problem is how to combine the two files so that I have one set
of money files. When I cease travelling, the notebook will not be used for
Money work; but the desktop will. So I need to combine the two files.

Are there any solutions?

Thanks,

John Reid
