= SYMPTOMS =

The opening balance for a Transaction Report shows a zero amount.

= CAUSE =

This problem occurs if the selected date range includes the very first transaction in the account.

= RESOLUTION =

To resolve this problem, do either of the following:

  Use All Dates for the date range. -or-   Enter a dummy transaction into the account dated one day before the date range desired and use a zero payment amount for the transaction. 

Money will now use the running balance from that transaction as the opening balance on the report.

= STATUS =

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Money version 3.0 for Windows. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
