Does it exist? I need a software that will synch my Money datafile to my Smartphone. There is one that comes native with Money 2004 for PPC but not for SmartPhone. Any suggested software?

There is a new one called XS Finance by a company called xcitesoftware.

They have a money program that will import and export QIF files. But it is all a manual effort as the software is mant to be used on it's own. Though it does look very good.

I've been waiting very patiently for MS to make PocketMoney for the smartphone.....for a long time now.

We got an email on this today. Haven't had a chance to setup a front page post yet. But it should be coming soon. :D For what it's worth, it looks like a pretty nice application.

It actually is nice. Was using the beta for a bit. But if it cant sync with money, it's kinda not worth it to me. Still nice as a standalone app though!

I'll give it a try.

Before I switched from Quicken to Money I had tried a few Pocket PC programs that promised good interface with the desktop version of Quicken. I found it difficult to keep having to import and export QIF files. They rarely worked well. This is why I eventually gave up and bought Money as it had a native Pocket PC interface.

I hope MS will develop a Money for Smart Phones version soon.

Well...I bit the bullet last night and decided to buy XS Finance program. It actually looks pretty good and imported the files just fine. I may do a small review of it at a later time. I figure it's the only serious looking program out there to handle Money or Quicken records so my choices were narrowed. Thanks again encece for the recommendation.
