Here's how I do it:

Set up two accounts: (1) American Express Card, and (2) American Express
Sign & Travel.

The payment out of your checking account is a "split" with a transfer to
"American Express Card" and transfer to "American Express Sign & Travel".

Make sure the financial institution that you're using for American Express
online services is "American Express Sign & Travel". (NOTE: There may be
more than one choice for American Express). Because you use the same
account number for both accounts, I believe that you add another digit to
the account number for each ('1' for the regular card, '2' for the S&T).
This may happen automatically for you when you're setting up or modifying
your online services using Online Services Manager, I can't recall for sure.

This approach has worked for me for years.

Good luck.

My American Express card has a 'Sign and Travel' account feature where it
acts like two credit cards: one is the regular AMEX for all transactions
except travel related expenses which go on to something more like a regular
credit card. The number is the same, the statement is the same. The issue
is that when I make payments, AMEX splits the payment up: if I owe $1000 for
each of the two parts and make the full $2000 payment, AMEX shows two $1000
payments. The problem with Microsoft Money is that it keeps downloading the
two payments and I can't reconcile them to the single transfer I made from
my checking account. I have to delete or void the downloaded transactions,
but they always redownload several times. Is there any way to either make
it reconcile right or stop the redownloads?
