Click on tools / options

Change "match transactions within a" __60__ "day range" <<<<----
change this number to a higher number, e.g., 120.

Apparently, the problem was that a 60-day range was too short for a
check that took 71 days to clear. Therefore, MS Money did not
recognize the transaction as being the same transaction even though
the dollar amount and the check number and the payee were identical.
After changing the 60-day range to a 120-day range, the transaction
processed correctly.

Default Late-Clearing check downloading from bank as duplicate

I have MS Money 2000 Standard Edition Version 8.0.

I paid a bill in March and entered it manually -- check number, date,
amount and everything.

When I download the transaction from the bank, it enters as an
additional check with the same number and the date that it cleared the
bank.

It took over two months for the check to clear. But, shouldn't MS
Money recognize the check by check number and NOT include it as a
'new' transaction??

I've tried deleting the manual entry and correcting the date on the
downloaded entry. That doesn't work. It just sees it as a 'new'
transaction the next time I download.

Thanks.

Barb
