You should be able to transfer your data relatively painlessly assuming you
are using a US version--the new version will actually do all of the work
itself. Not all users have been that lucky, though. The bigger issue might
be if you have a powerful enough machine. A machine contemporary with Win98
will likely be a dog with a new version. Check the System Requirements
carefully and multiply the CPU clock speed suggestion by 4 or 5.

There is a trial version of M04 available at http://www.microsoft.com/money.
If you go this way:

a) Read and heed the information it provides about the file upgrade process.

b) If you decide to buy, do not do the on-line upgrade. Go buy the CD at the
store and save lots of potential hassle.

Dick, Thank you for your help. I will look into new
software in the near future. Any suggestions? Will I be
able to transfer my data to the new software?
At this point, because I am under a time constraint, I
will try to re-create the report by customizing it.
Thanks - O

See http://www.bollar.org/msmoney/#Q104. BTW, M98 was the single buggiest
version in the history of the product. You should be thinking about some
migration plan to something less buggy and less than 6 versions obsolete.

I have been using this program all week, printing out the
register without a hitch. Yesterday, this error came up:
This operation cannot be performed.

I was going to reinstall the software and see if that
helped but my CD doesn't have the reinstall software...it
was installed at Dell.

The way I have been viewing and running this report is:
Accounts - Register - Reports - Spending habits - Account
Transactions. At this point the register should pull up
but instead I get the error message noted above.

Any suggestions of how to fix?
Thanks - "O"
