    Just to close this subject; I installed version 3.2.2 and the problem seems to have gone away. Thanks.

    iCash as alternative to Microsoft Money

    Only just seen your post after some absence from the forum. I am also in the UK and wanted to do exactly what you wanted. iCash does it better than any of the other programs. However, because of the way MS Money exports its data to the intermediate Quicken file format, you are more or less...

    Incorrect figures in overview screen

    error returns The same problem has appeared again and now affects 2 accounts, both of which have very few transactions so I cannot see how they could be summed incorrectly. As before, there have been no crashes or system errors and the date check tool says everything is OK. Yet I have small...

    Incorrect figures in overview screen

    Stan, for some strange reason, the file now displays the balances correctly. I have done nothing to it (no export XML and import) so it seems to have righted itself somehow. Remembering that the error had resurfaced when I added a Net interest transaction, I added another such transaction to see...

    Stan, did you receive the file OK? Any sign of the source of the problem?

    OK. I'm sending the XML export of the file.

    Incorrect figures in overview screen

    I enter all my transactions manually. I started using iCash in January this year and the account in question has only 5 transactions, 1 for each month, each one being of the type Net Interest; the only thing different about these transactions compared with others is that there is no payee...

    Stan, One month on and the same error has returned. And it is by the same amount as before (0.37GBP). This time, I can absolutely confirm there have been no system crashes nor has iCash crashed on me. If the file was corrupt before and was fixed, how come the error has come back? This is a...

    Yes, I mailed my file to Stan (site admin) who kindly fixed it - turned out that the file was corrupt. This can happen as a result of a system crash or power failure while working though in my case I don't recall either of these happening. He exported the file as XML and then re-imported. I...

    Incorrect figures in overview screen

    There are no transactions in this account - there were only four and they have all been deleted. There are no future scheduled transactions, either; there is only the opening balance - nothing else; yet the error is displayed in the Overview screen and running Tools/Check data shows 'No errors'.

    No, there is a 0.37 discrepancy between the balance and the reconciled amount. The amount shown in the Reconciled column exactly matches the Opening Balance for the account (as entered when setting up the account in Account Manager), while the Balance column shows 0.37 less than it should. This...

    I use only the default 2 decimals. I tried deleting the 4 transactions and adding them afresh but the result is exactly the same - an error of -0.37 GBP.

    I've tried that but it says there are no errors and has failed to fix the problem.

    Incorrect figures in overview screen

    I have noticed a discrepancy in the amounts shown in the Overview screen. All transactions (only 4) for the account in question have been reconciled yet the Pending column shows a negative amount (-0.37) and the balance is therefore incorrect by that amount. How can this be corrected?

    Database upgrade problem in 3.1.1

    I can open the file fine by dropping on the application. In any case, I downloaded and installed 3.1.2 and now all is well. I think, in fact, that iCash was getting confused about which file was being opened; there seem to be a lot of backup files plus 'old files' created when the program was...

    Database upgrade problem in 3.1.1

    Glad to hear the file size is nothing to worry about. Is there a fix for the upgrade database dialog box that appears whenever I try to open a document?

    Database upgrade problem in 3.1.1

    One other alarming thing I've noticed is that the file size has leapt from 1.2MB to 4MB. How is this possible? I have only added 2 transactions since upgrading.

    Database upgrade problem in 3.1.1

    Yes, that's exactly what I was trying to describe - if I first run iCash and then go to the File/Open menu, I can open it without the dialog. But I should be able to simply double-click the document or its alias - I don't want to have to navigate through Finder to get to the file. And surely it...

    Database upgrade problem in 3.1.1

    I've just upgraded to version 3.1.1. When I first ran it, I got a message that the document needed to be upgraded to the current iCash version. I clicked OK. However, I now discover that I get this dialog every single time I open the document. How do I get it to stop? If I start iCash and then...
