Default Cannot convert Money 98 Files to 2004 nor 2001 Demo version

I installed the 2004 UK demo version and have been able
de convert my 98 file. Thanks.
I only can buy UK version to work with my file but I am
in Mauritius and they only sell US versions.
Best Regards.

304254 describes several workarounds. The ultimate answer in your case may
well be: http://support.microsoft.com/default...;EN-US;q197668.


What localization was your M98? Did you download the M04 Trial for US?

When you upgrade you must stay within a region i.e. US to US or UK to UK.
It is likely that your M98 is non US and you have downloaded the US trial.

What region is your M98?

Default Cannot convert Money 98 Files to 2004 nor 2001 Demo version

I installed a demo version of MS Money 2004 to see if it
is worth upgrading from Money 98.
I tried to open my .MNY file and had the error : "Money
cannot open this file because it was created by an
incompatible version.".
I tried everything said in the Microsoft support article
Q304254. But still was not able to do it.
I even tried with a demo version of MS Money 2001.
Please help.
Thank you
