This is not working either. We have redirected user directories using Group
Policy - the Application Data, Start Menu, Desktop, and My Documents
directories are on a separate File Server. Money recognizes only partially that
this is the users data location. When it actually tries to access a file there
it gives an error "Money is not properly installed. Please try setup again."

Boyd, I am a firm believer that anything can be made to run on TS. It
could be that Money is not meant to run in TS mode Money is more of a
home product. One trick I picked up with stubborn applications that
insist to be in a single user mode is to put a copy of the app into each
users home directory if it is on a network share. This is not a pretty
solution but it will work. Install Money on the terminal servers the way
you would any application. Then move a copy of the app into each user's
home directory where they can save their settings and such and point the
icon to the home path in my case would be "U:\application". Again this
is not pretty but a down and rity way to make it work.
