Money 2003 or 2004 Time Limited Like Quicken?

#3 05-14-2004, 02:36 PM

Thanks Bob

I don't use any of the online features anyway; just keep personal & business
transactions on it and export the txf file every year for income tax.

Thanks again!

Lew

No it doesn't quit working; the on-line automatic updates and downloads will
time out however. But you can still do manual stock price updates.

Hi Cal

I recently went to 03 business version of Money; are you saying it is going
to quit working & require me to upgrade? It wouldn't take a lot of work to
bring my old Money 2k files up to date at this point in time; if 2003
version is going to quit I need to go back to 2k version (US business &
personal or whatever they called it that year) now!

Thanks

Lew

Yes. Money 2003 and 2004. Actually I don't know if it is the same as
Quicken, but it sounds similar. Three years for Deluxe, which is US
only. I am not sure if Canadian version is one or two years. Put on
the magnifiers and read the small print on the box.

i am a longtime user of money when i lived in the us, 1999,2000 and 2002
when i moved to canada i got a copy of quicken (which i regret and have
never liked compared to money)
now it is apparently "expiring" after july, i won't even be able to import
QIF files
i consider this to be extortion to disable a simple import feature
they want $59.95 for a year which they will have to pry out of my cold dead
hands
so i re-installed money 2000 and it's works fine

two questions:
do any of the newer (2003-2004) money versions "lock up" after a year and
disallow importing ala quicken

i have accounts in the us and canada...the us version will allow me to
download only from my canadian bank which is ok...does the canadian version
add anything other than improved downloading from canadian banks?

thanks!
