To assist in that, Money allows you to display only the

John,

In the past, there have been a number of times when this
has occured for me. I have found the clicking make
adjustments, usually does not work and caused more
problems. I have found two or three things that can cause
this problem. One is a corput file. The program salv.exe
tthat can be found either on the website, the CD or in
your MS MONEY files, can sometimes fix the problem.
If you run the SALV.EXE file and it does not fix the
problem then the next thing I would try is see if you have
accidently clicked on a Reconciled Transaction and
unreconciled it. I have found three or four times over the
past years, that a transaction, sometimes months back, has
changed status. Look for that next.
Then look for transactions that you have not entered
(which most likely will not be the case-I assume you have
probably done this).
The last thing I have had to do is to pull up a backed up
Money file and reenter all the data since the backed up
date. This can be a pain, but I have had to do that to fix
the probem.
Microsoft Online has helped me also, by exporting and then
importing a backed up account, but this can be troublesome
too. I do not like to do this

I backup daily and then do a different backup weekly, so
incase this happens, I can fix the problem by changing to
the backup. It will never correct itself, and will
continue indefintly if you don't fix get it fixed.
Let me know if any of this helps.

Can someone pls. help me here? I have been working to try
and resolve this starting balance issue with no luck. I
have been able to reconcile the transactions of my most
current bank statement. In short the difference is now
zero. However, when I try and close out the balancing
process I receieve a message that states "The starting
balance calculated from your money records still does not
match the starting balance entered from your statement."

The amount is ($3,107.21). Should I have the application
go ahead and make an adkustment for me? What are the pros
and cons of this approach?

John
