Money 2004 corrupts on a restore

I'd bet it was tested. Not everybody reports this problem. I'd bet that this
was a result of some preexisting problem in the file you were upgrading.
These seem to happen to an alarming number of upgraders.

The last thing to ever do on a Money problem is wait for Microsoft to fix
it.

See http://www.bollar.org/msmoney/#Q85 and
http://www.bollar.org/msmoney/#Q104.

I backedup my 2004 database

I restored from my 2004 database backup and all the total
fields are about $555,729,300,950,923.43. Did i just
miscalculate how rich i am, or is that a bug. Ie it
appears to have maxed out the totals fields.

any ideas on how to solve this? should i reinstall 2004
and then try to restore again? or should i hang out for a
SP?
