The R/O flag was not checked....
I do think its a permission problem.

The error you got wasn't a permissions problem. Right click on the file and
select 'Properties'. At the bottom, you'll see Attributes, and a Read-only
check box. Clear that box and you should be able to open it.

Good luck - John

I have created multiple XP accounts (one for me and my
wife). I have created a directory on C: and put the money
file(s) there and granted full permission on the dir and
files. However, every time I try to access the money file
through her account I get ....

Money cannot locate <file> .mny or open it because it is a
read-only file or you do not have permission to change it
or your disk drive is write protected ...

I have granted Full Control to the Users group (as well
as other combinations) and cannot get her access.

Has anyone else used Money with more than one logon
account?
