Which of the two backup options are you using? If you are using the
"Back up to floppy" one (even after changing from A to G) the message
almost makes sense.

If you change to the "Back up to hard disk:" one, it should work. But
then you either keep the flash drive mounted all the time (because
money will continue to use it) or repeat the backup operation
specifying your permanent C (or data) drive.

I have had better luck letting Money backup to the same directory as
the .mny file and then copying the .mbf file to a flash drive.

Known problem. See http://money.mvps.org/faq/article/472.aspx

Workaround is to make sure that less than 2GB is free.

Fixed in Money+.

Some of the older software packages assume that backing up to a floppy drive
is the norm. Why not backup to your hard drive and then copy the file to the
flash drive. This would also give you a second copy of the backup file.
Flash drives DO fail.

I am trying to back up my money file on a flash drive. I keep on getting this
error message Money has filled the current disk please insert disk 2 into the
G drive so that we may continue to build your backup.
The flash drive is a new Sandisk micro 4 GB I have 2 MG stored on it. The
error message make no sense. Any suggestions. Thanks
