Larry,
Money Talks should be able to accomplish what you want although I'm a bit
confused as to exactly what that is. While you can maintain as many Money
Talks accounts as you need, each account should correspond to a related
financial account such as a checking account, savings account, or credit
card account. This just makes it easier to reconcile what your Money Talks
book balance is and the corresponding bank account balance. I got lost
trying to figure out what you meant by the two accounts branching off of
your main Money Talks account. Will funds actually be moving from the main
account to those other accounts r are you just using those other accounts as
an accounting mechanism? How do you plan to know how much real funds you
have when you check the Money Talks account balances?
I'll be happy to help however possible as I use Money Talks fairly
extensively.

Subject: [moneytalks] new account in Money Talks
Hi,
I have a bank account using my checking account and I deposit money in to
that account.
I want to keep track of the money I will write in to the account using Money
talks, so as not to get it mixed up with the other info.
All money will flow in to the bank account, I would just need to have two
different money talks account branching off from my original checking
account.
Can I do this using money Talks?
I would assume that I press CTRL+N for new account.
If true, then I configure it and save it. Would it save the info as the
new account with a different name than the older account.
Two different accounts but the money for both of the accounts is going in to
my older bank account.
Does this work? Is there anything I need to be aware of when doing this?
Sorry, I haven't tried doing this before.
I could also write an Excel document to keep track of the money in this
account but would rather use Money Talks if possible Larry

Harvey,
I don't have an answer for accessing your backed up Money Talks files
on two different computers but I will say that regular Money Talks
files are saved with an mtf file extension. I suggest you search for
these mtf files on your computer and save them to a flash thumb drive
for transport to another computer.

I am trying to backup Money Talk files from my computer to restore onto
another computer that my wife previously used.
I used the backup and restore procedures that you stated below, but it
has not work.
Somehow when I originally installed Money Talks on my computer, the
files were placed into the User folder called "Harvey".
However, the user folder on my Wife's computer is called "Connie".
I am not sure if what I stated above is causing the problem, but if it
is, how can I transfer my existing Money Talks files into a folder that
is common to both the computers?
If the above is not the problem, then what else could be causing it?
Thanks for any help.

Larry:
We made it as simple as possible, so it's probably different than what
you've done in other programs.
Open Money Talks.
Go To File and select backup.
When it asks for the path, simply type the letter of the drive followed
by back slash (\) so if your thumb drive is e, you would simply type in
e:\
Press enter.
You don't need to worry about folders, files, accounts. Money Talks
will do the rest.
When you restore, do the same steps, except you choose "restore"
instead of back up.
MT will know what folders and files to place where.

Okay,
A little clarification first though.
Typically, I just add the app data files and all of my settings are
retained in most aplications.
This is a bit different and so I don't want to accidentally delete 10
or so years of transactions.
So I go to the drive that housed my earlier version of Money talks, and
then go in to either the menus or press the application key, go to
restore earlier versions and press enter?
Sorry I just want to be clear.

Try Rob's suggestion of backing up and then restoring. This will grab
all of the files and put them in the appropriate place.
Once restored, you can do control open, up and down through the account
files and open them.

The only file that opened in the new register with CONTROL+O was checking.
I Have more but they don't seem to have opened.

Is an RTF file similoar to Microsoft word?
Choices include Notepad etc.

Hi all,
I just bought a new Windows 10 computer.
I've been using Money talks for years on several computers.
I downloaded the newest version of Money Talks from APH.
I ran the executable.
I put in my key, and then went to my back up for App Data and grabbed
the APH folder wich contained Money talks. I added it to my most
current App data.
I don't see any of my files or ealier transactions.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks for any help you can give.
