I don't know, but what I would consider is perhaps there is some
really weird transaction being downloaded that Money is not dealing
with. So what I would do is after step 10, I would right-click the
place where it says you have the transactions to approve. Choose
delete, and accept the warning.

The next time Money should ask only for later transactions. Then
manually add any transactions that you missed. Let's hope that would
break the cycle.

(OK, what I might *really* do first is to get a copy of the
download, examine, and perhaps repair it. But that is more work than
entering the transactions by hand)

I am sure you have already learned the wisdom of having backups, so
I won't have to remind you.

Since Tuesday every time I update my Money 2004 file it becomes corrupt. I
have tried everything trying to fix the problem. Below are just a few of the
steps:

1. Restore file from backup.
2. Run Salvage to make sure it clean/fixed (says file is ok), delete all
files from Internet Explorer
3. Open Money file
4. Browse accounts... all work fine (no transactions to approve)
5. Update file online
6. Once complete , click ok and it takes me to the Account List
7. As soon as Account List updates with the accounts that have transactions
that need approved I get an error that requires a restart
8. Salvage file again and fix errors, delete all files from Internet
Explorer
9. Open fixed Money file
10. Look at Account Lists, shows number of transactions that need approved
11. Go to account to approve transactions and none there to approve
12. Go back to Account List and account still says there are transactions to
approve.

What could be going on? Does it have to do with MSN, my bank or what? This
is driving me crazy?
