If you plan to upgrade to Microsoft Money 2006 or 2007 and use it with your Pocket PC, don’t. According to the Microsoft web page Money for handheld devices and Palm Pilots, Money 2007 will not sync with any Pocket PC version and Money 2006 only synchronizes with Pocket PCs that run versions preceding Windows Mobile 5.
If you want something to help manage your finances on your Pocket PC and can sync with both Microsoft Money and Quicken, take a look at Spb Finance.
I downloaded the trial version of Microsoft Money essentials. I also downloaded SBP finance. Both are installed, but SBP Finance does not give me the option to point it towards the Microsoft Money backup file so that I can sync. In the SBP finance user’s manual, it says this should appear the first time you sync….any ideas?
Kurt: Can you provide a URL where Microsoft endorses Ultrasoft Money? I don’t see it on the Microsoft Money web pages.
Hi,
Microsoft recomends that you sync your Pocket PC, any version with Ultrasoft Money.

Good information but SPB Finance is only compatible with Windows Mobile 5 not smartphone. I had purchased Money 2007 and also SPB Finance and now that I upgraded my cell phone for a smartphone (Dash)I am in trouble with no sync. Any idea how can I have Money 2007 in my Dash? Thanks
