SYMPTOMS
When you click the Bills tab in Microsoft Money 2006, Money 2006 unexpectedly quits without an error message.



CAUSE
This issue occurs when the following conditions are true:
 * There is an account name or an investment name that is longer than 64 characters.
 * The account name or the investment name is associated with one of the following Bill series:
 * Transfer
 * Credit Card Payment
 * Buy
 * You do not specify a payee name when you create one of these Bill series.

In this scenario, a payee name is automatically created from the account name or from the investment name. Therefore, the payee name may be longer than 64 characters. A payee name that is longer than 64 characters causes this issue to occur.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, add a payee name that is shorter than 64 characters to the Bill series. To add a payee name, follow these steps:
 * 1) Start Money 2006.
 * 2) Click Reports.
 * 3) Click Change Report Settings.
 * 4) Click Switch from Essential Reports to Advance Reports, and then click Use Advance Reports.
 * 5) In the Assets and Liabilities area, click Upcoming Bills and Deposits.
 * 6) Locate the bill that has an account name or an investment name that is longer than 64 characters.
 * 7) Right-click the bill entry, point to Edit, and then click Edit Series.
 * 8) In the Pay To box, type a new name for the payee. Make sure that the name is shorter than 64 characters.
 * 9) Click OK.
