Good idea Gary, simpler method than what I was writing about.

Why not use Save As to first put your Moneytalks file into something
harmless. Then open that file and select and delete transactions above and
below the range you want. Then save that file and do whatever manipulation you
need to get the figures you want. When you are done, delete that file and leave
your good files - your real accounts alone.

Hi Nancy,
I'm wondering if you can select a series of transactions by date range,
let's say an entire year, export that to a .qif or .csv file, under the money
talks file menu, start a new register, then import that .csv or .qif file into
the new register and give it a name. Then if you made sure you had the correct
starting balance in the properties, alt+e, you might get meaningful information
out of the register.
Maybe the MT folks can come up with a simpler sollution, because I think
these kinds of issues have come up before.

Nancy,
The short answer is that you can't. Any time you restrict the
transactions, MoneyTalks provides a running balance of those transactions. What
are you wanting to do, when you restrict by date?

Now can anyone tell me how to use the restrict by date, and still have
the bank balance appear.
Also I'm still having trouble using the category summary with all
accounts accept the personal account.
Maybe all of you who use jaws know this command but I just learned that
if I type the letter c on an internet page I can more quickly find the accounts
information. It works to.
Thanks for all the help.
Nancy

I keep all of my transactions from past years but when it comes time to
do my taxes, I create a duplicate copy called 2006.mtf and then delete from it
all transactions before and after that year. In this way I have the best of
both worlds - searching all activity at any time for my account, but being able
to create subsets for special purposes.
