Try the ignore button, rather than abort. Also, make sure you are logged into an admin account. Otherwise, I'll have to let Rob comment on this one, as he is more familiar with win. 7.

That doesn’t sound like to much of a chore. Before I start, I have a question. It took me a while to look at Money Talks on the new Win 7 since I was trying to learn the new OS and finding my way around it and I was updating MT on the XP for around a month so the register on the Windows 7 isn’t up to date. Manually bringing it current wouldn’t be overwhelming for the one month or so, but I was wondering if before I install the .exe file you mentioned if copying the MT Backups folder to my external drive and pasting it on the MT Backups on the Win 7 so the files would be over written would allow me to skip having to manually update the register? Or is there another way? I’ve got about 6 years worth of entries and don’t want to mess up.

Since you are not uninstalling, you shouldn’t need your key code. However, if asked for a key code, then you can enter the key code you have.

My checkbook register initially initially appeared to be in reasonably good order once I re-arranged columns etc., but I discovered a big problem. version 1.4.0.0 is on the XP version 1.1.0.0 is on the Windows 7 and check for updates says no update is available. I purchased the downloadable version so don’t have the CD. I have my registration code. Is there some half-way easy way of getting Money Talks on the Windows 7 the same as that on the XP so I can have the newer version and the register and all associated files will be up to date? Any help would be greatly appreciated, Margaret
