Of course Bill ponders this, Bill is forever concerned about the
feature's in his software, that's what it means to be Bill Gates.

Everybody's money is in a precarious situation, or at least they feel
that way, the only person who can feel secure about late fee's and
overdrafts are billionaires who don't need credit.

being uptight doen't enter into this, either you pay on time or you
don't, no company is going to give you a break and say "oh, it's ok, you
can pay us back in 5 days".

Cash Managment can never be to good, missing by a day is unexeptable if
you want a good credit rating or just want to keep your money or
services.

I don't care about mail or ect. I can afford to be felxable about those,
but I will not be flexable about my money! Your attitude is going to lead
you to a bad credit rating or bankruptcy.

This is really riduculous, these programs are all about paying bills, the
fact that Microsoft has not only failed to implement this feature in 2002
and 2003 but also missed the boat in 2004 is suprising.

I am currently investigating if quicken also lacks this feature, if it
does I will find a product that does have this feature, when I find it I
will report back to this newsgroup and give the title of the software and
how to get it.

BTW do all your shopping on ebay not buy.com, just beware of the
bootlegers.

I seriously don't think Bill ponders the feature set in Money very much. If
your cash flow situation is so precarious, your on-line services so
up-tight, and your cash management so good that you never miss by a day, I
hope nothing else in the world (the mails, the clearing houses, etc) never
screw you up either.

Knock yourself out with Quicken, I hope it meets your needs. For your
convenience, here's a link:

That's pretty sad, this is a basic feature, what's Bill thinking? Many
online sites are charging in intervals of 30 days, if I get the bill one
day late or early it could be a late fee or a overdraft fee. Money is a
joke. I'm going to get Quicken.

Of course, 30 days is only off by five days after a year if you use Monthly.

Default Setting 'odd' time interval of recurring bills in 2000

M04--the latest--can't do any better. This is a huge
outstanding weakness in Money--the recurrence scheduling
model is pathetic.

Default Setting 'odd' time interval of recurring bills in 2000

I am using Money 2000, I noticed that I am not able to setup a bill due
every 30 days, it only allows me monthly, I probably need to upgrade to get
this feature. Can anyone tell me if Money 2000 has this feature? I would
like to upgrade to Money 2002 because I can get it on ebay real cheap.

Thanks
