Microsoft Money FAQ site is on the move

The Microsoft Money FAQ site at money.mvps.org is on the move, and will be hosted at http://moneymvps.org with immediate effect.

If you have any favorite links on that site, they will be redirected for the next three months, but I urge you to update them beforehand. After three months, the former site will no longer redirect or contain the content.

All links transfer exactly the same with the exception of the dot (.) in the main part of the web address, so a link to money.mvps.org/faq/article/601.aspx becomes moneymvps.org/faq/article/601.aspx etc.

Over time, links on this site will be updated to reflect the change, should this not be too onerous a task.

Restore Microsoft Money Online Quotes with MSMoneyQuotes

One of the former members of the Microsoft Money team, Dan Gaier has recently released a program which allows users of the more recent versions of Microsoft Money to obtain stock quotes again. Microsoft turned off (or broke) the original mechanism in Money some time ago.

Dan has a good history with Money - he was the software developer who built the Portfolio Manager for both MSN Money and Microsoft Money, worked on the quote services that powered them, and in 2009 built the Money-to-Quicken Converter for Intuit, so is well qualified to produce this pretty excellent solution.

I've written more information at http://moneymvps.org/faq/article/653.aspx, but you can go straight to his website for more information and download instructions: https://gaiersoftware.com/Money

Death Valley Charity Cycle Ride

Hi to my readers. There isn't much happening on the Microsoft Money front any more, but I do still read the comments and answer the questions that I get. Keep them coming and I will do my best to answer them.

I wanted to let my site visitors know that next year, I will be cycling 420km (260 miles) across Death Valley in Nevada and California (and up and down the mountains either side) for charity, and would be grateful for any support that anyone can give. Its a pretty intense 5 day trek, the first i have ever done. It doesn't matter how big or small your donation is (the bigger the better, obviously!) the charity (Sue Ryder) helps people with terminal and life limiting illnesses and is a great cause.

My aim is to raise about £3000 ($5000) by next summer. If you wish to donate please visit http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/GlynSimpson.

If you are hesitant to donate, or just want some more information, please get in touch. 

Thank you.

Glyn
