This is a stretch, but was the loan ever (and I mean ever) part of the Debt
Reduction Planner?

If so, try the following:
1. un-close the loan account.
2. add the account to the DRP (and complete all screens through to the
"Finish")
3. close and restart Money
4. remove the account from the DRP (and complete all screens through to the
"Finish")
5. close the account
6. check the budget editor

Someone from this newsgroup (try searching) had to perform a similar
operation to truly disassociate a loan/credit account from the DRP in order
for it to disappear from the Budget Planner. I want to say that loan/credit
accounts that were DRP-associated and then closed were still "active" in
some fashion...

Good luck,
Derrick

i am setting up a budget in 2004. I have a loan account
that we paid off. This loan keeps showing up in my budget
under debt evev though there is a zero balance and the
account is closed. It shows the regular payment amount
and i have tried everything possible to get it out of
there.
Money help says to uncheck a box on the left hand
side of the page in the account page so it wont be
included in my budget amount but there is no such box.
Any help would be appreciated
