Negative amounts showing for investment transactions #2
I have been on Money Deluxe 2005 for a while now. Last week, I was looking at my investment accounts and noticed that the cash accounts associated all have negative cash-on-hand. Upon further review, I found about 15 sale transactions that looked just fine in the Investment Transactions registers but were marked as payments, rather than deposits, in the related Cash Transaction accounts. I did a standard repair but that didn't seem to help and it showed no broken records when I viewed the log. I then voided each of the incorrectly recorded transactions and re-entered them manually. All was fine until I closed Money and went back in. At that point, everything was back to negatives again. It seems that the errors include dividends being listed as negative as well as sales of equities. I went ahead and did a 'msmoney -s' but that made the problem worse - now all the negative amounts have doubled. Fortunately, I kept a backup to use in case the -s made things worse. So, I'm back to the "less-worse" version of my portfolio. Can you please help me? This is happening on transactions regardless of whether they come in from Scottrade via .ofx or whether I enter them manually. Many thanks!!!

Removing External Links #2
Hello, I have a spreadsheet that seems to think it needs to link to another spreadsheet, but I know better! I looked under Edit>Links and found the file name and searched for it on all worksheets. I could not find it in the formulas. I checked my named ranges and none of them contain the offending file name. I have buttons to which I have assigned macros, and none of them point to a macro contained in the offending file. Does anyone have other ideas where I might look to remove this external reference? By the way, I am running 2000, which doesn't have the ability to break links. ...
