================================================================ ==

The information in this article applies to:

 Microsoft Money 98 == Microsoft Money 99 == 

= SYMPTOMS =

If you install the retail version of Microsoft Money after you install the Trial version of Money, you may receive messages and a startup screen indicating that you are still using the Trial version of Money.

In Addition, if you remove and then reinstall the retail version of Money, the Trial version messages and startup screen may continue to be displayed.

= CAUSE =

This behavior can occur if the Trial version of the Mnyob99.dll file is installed in the Windowsfolder.

= RESOLUTION =

To resolve this issue, delete all copies of the Mnyob99.dll file installed on the computer, and then reinstall the retail version of Microsoft Money. To do this, follow these steps:


 * 1) Quit Microsoft Money if it is running.
 * 2) Click Start, point to Find, and then click Files Or Folders.
 * 3) In the Named box, type “mnyob99.dll” (without the quotation marks), and then click Find Now.
 * 4) On the Edit menu, click Select All, and then press the DELETE key.
 * 5) Close the Find: Files Named Mnyob99.dll dialog box.
 * 6) Reinstall the retail version of Microsoft Money.

= STATUS =

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article.

= MORE INFORMATION =

The Mnyob99.dll file contains information about the version of Money installed on the computer. Money checks for this file when you start the program. Money looks in the Windowsfolder first and then checks the Money folder. If Money finds the Mnyob99.dll file in the Windowsfolder, it does not check the version of the file installed in the Moneyfolder.
