I've used the work-around to get Money 2003 on my iPAQ 1945 and it
works! But there's one small problem I'm hoping someone can answer:

My accounts are listed on the Today screen, but when I tap on one of
them I get this error message: "Error opening the shortcut or locating
the target filename."

Is there a work-around for that?

Thanks

So you want to use Money 2003 Pocket PC on a Pocket PC
2003? Not a problem!!! Actually, you can get around the
error when you install money on the Axim. I have the same
model. I've done it and it works fine. Here is way you do:

1. Uninstall PC Pocket Money 2003 and start all over.
2. Install Money for Pocket PC as you normally would.
3. When you get the Error Message on the Axim, Don't do
anything. Don't acknowledge it.
4. On the Pocket PC (while it is still in the cradle),
open up the file explorer and create a new directory
(folder), then go to the windows directory.
5. There is folder under the windows directory (i think),
called install.
6. You will find the pocket money install file there.
Copy that file to a new folder that you created in step.
7. After it is copied, go a head and acknowledge the
error message which will stop the install on the Pocket PC.
8. Return to the folder you created and execute the
install file.

If all goes will you will now have Money 2003 running on
your axim, and it will sync with your Money 2003 on your
PC the next time you sync.

Since doing this, I've not had any problems with the
Axim. Although I must admit, I haven't been impressed
with the Money Pocket PC at all. However, at least it
syncs up and I know what I have in my accounts along with
the transactions.

I use Money 2003 and have a new Axim running Pocket PC
2003. When I try to set up Money 2003 on my Axim, I get
an error message saying it only works with Pocket Pc
2002. If I try to set up Pocket Money 2004, I'm told I
don't have Money installed at all. Am I missing something?
