 Not NEARLY as good as last year December 15, 2001

This is one I wish I would have skipped. All of the new features are either ugly or annoying.It has way more ads, and is less user friendly. I uninstalled it and went back to 2001. Everyy once in a while MS slips up on us, you can tell they bleww this one off.

Money 2000 was great; it was fast, easy to use, and worked well. 2002 must have been written by a different group: several features don't work like they're supposed to, the online banking 'feature' is horrible now -- it integrates unapproved transactions with your register, forcing you to search through your register to find unapproved transactions. In addition, the budgeting feature breaks, and the really cool cash-flow feature doesn't work -- it will only display "1999" and a zero balance, and won't let you go in to specify different dates.It's too bad it's such a pain (...)to return software, or I would have done it.
Consider other options.... December 7, 2001

I was excited to get this product. I had MS Money 2000, and later upgraded to MS money 2002 standard. I run my own small business and needed something that was easy to use, and that would not require transfering information from one program to another. My first problem with MS Money 2002 deluxe and busines, is that YOU MUST UN-INSTALL the previous software! That was a pain. Why couldn't it just update the other version??The book is helpful, but is far to small, it leaves hanging on many areas. Setting up accounts in this program is not easy, it is not like Quick Books at all! The talking voices are annoying, and the help file never gives you what you want. I spent an hour figuring out how to update the business information, so that the invoices would have that vital information. I tried searching for address, no luck, and then business address, no luck. Eventually I stumbled upon how to fix it, but I doubt I could get there again easily. Please consider other options!

I am having a great time with the new version. I like the way this version handles bills on one page and enters my transactions directly into my register. Since I am not a business person, I do not have the invoice issues cited by others. So far, the automatic transactions is working great. And like others, I can turn off the "stuff" I am not using. This program really helps me track expenses and forecast a budget. It trends some expenses I wasn't tracking, which helps. It is a lot of work, but I find it a lot of fun....
Enormous waste of money November 29, 2001

I had been using the Money 95 version since its inception and found it very simple but useful for managing day-to-day finances. I decided to upgrade to 2002, and boy! what a mistake. The program is too cluttered with useless bells & whistles, and the budget features continually crash the program. I have been sent entirely new software from Microsoft addressing the problem, yet it continues. If you work within a budget and find the monthly reports vital (like I do), this program is astoundingly bad. In fact, I'll either switch to another program or dump this version and reinstall '95. What a waste of money.
