You could also try a level 1 repair (which will also reset reports).
And then maybe do a level 2 on the result of that repair. Otherwise,
a backup will be what is available.

I'll do that. I was backing up my files in a different media every month, but
the last time I did it was on October. I guess I'll have to be more carefull
and back it up more often. Thank you anyway.

I would restore your newest or second-newest backup. When you
restore, instead of restoring to the "default location", you can
browse to your documents file, and choose a new name so as to not
overwrite the latest *.mny file -- in case you can come up with a
fix for that one.

Thank you, but it didn´t work. I tried level 2 repair and got an answer that
the file was fixed and the following log: "fixed records in BGT_ITM table".
But when I tried to open the file (already repaired), after typing my
password I receive the same message: this operation cannot be performed. It
is not a software problem though 'cause I am able to open my kids files,
which don't have passwords.

I´ve been using Microsoft Money 2003 every day for quite a few years already.
Everyday I update my file, and everything went right 'till yesterday. Today,
when I tried to open the file, I received a message stating: "this operation
cannot be performed".
I´ve already copied the file to another computer, tried giving it another
name, and also tried to open de bkp file, but I received the same message.
Unfortunately, the last backup I've made was on October...
I'm from Brazil and people here don't know this software. Can somebody help
me please? I really don't want to start all over again. Thanks.
