What is new in 2.1?

On August 26th, we have released 2.1 and is available, free of cost, to all the existing 2.0 customers. These are the highlights of 2.1:

• Payee list, in the transaction detail screen, can now be sorted and searched. Tap on 'Manage' to invoke the new features. 

• Category report setup screen allows you to sort the report, ascending or descending, based on the categories

• Payee Report setup screen allows you to sort the report, ascending or descending, based on the payees

• The conduit has been improved to allow the export or import of CSV and QIF files containing an unlimited number of split categories

• The conduit also includes a bigger list international date formats

Installing updates

Run the setup program - checkMoneyPlusSetup.exe. The checkMoney setup program will automatically install the conduit (checkMoney.dll). You should restart your computer or the HotSync Manager to make sure that checkMoney conduit is properly installed and appears in the list of conduits.

The setup program will create 'checkMoney' folder under the installation directory (by default in c:\program files\checkMoney), a start menu, extract the necessary application files and as well as the document files. 

You should find the following files:

• checkMoney.prc

• checkMoney_CategoryDB.pdb (Use only if you wish to use checkMoney default categories)
  Note: If you have created your own categories, do not install this file as this will overwrite your existing categories

• checkmoney_conduit.htm

• FAQs.htm

• checkMoney Plus User Guide 3.0.pdf

• License.txt

• Readme.txt

• checkMoney.dll

After the installation, locate checkMoney.prc and use Palm Desktop Install Tool to install it. This file can be found in c:\program files\checkMoney or in the directory where you installed checkMoney.

You should also install checkMoney_CategoryDB.pdb if you wish to use checkMoney default categories. Note that If you have already created your own checkMoney categories, do not install this file as this will overwrite your existing categories
