Try opening Money with Start-> Run and entering
"msmoney -s" without the quotes into the box.

I just started using MONEY 2003. After I set up three
accounts using the set up assistant and entered some
transactions I tried to balance one of the accounts. The
audio portion of the program indicated that it could not
balance the account because the starting balance was
different than what I had entered in the window that is
displayed when I clicked on the "Balance this account"
option. When I click on the "Account List" in the tool
bar all three accounts are displayed with a huge red
number in pararentheses for the balance e.g.
($801,447,300,967,264.45)
However when I go to the "change account details"
under "common tasks" for a particular account to try to
correct the balance it does not show this number but the
correct number that I input using the setup assistant.

Any help on how to fix this problem would be very much
appreciated. Thanks
