However, the software just doesn't work well. I'm always having problems. Monthly something goes wrong, if not more often. Sherlock, I did what you said, although I really think Quicken needs to fix all these problems so we can use it as actually advertised. I created the loan OK. I went to link it to an asset. Well, I already had one for "house", but I couldn't link it to that, I had to create a new one I named "house 2". I linked it OK. I then tried to delete account "house". It was doing its thing then presto-chango, damn Quicken died. Really? Ok, so I restarted Q and it looks like I didn't lose anything I had done, and "house" was gone. Then, I tried to change the name of "house 2" to house, but it says that name already exists. There is no account named "house" in my account list. There are no hidden accounts. What am I missing here? I guess when it died, it hadn't finished cleaning things up so now there's a ghost name of part of an account out there. You know, it's not that complicated. I was a software architect for a major health care company. We integrated finance, registration, lab, radiology, oncology, transcription and many other systems into the electronic medical system. Now THAT was complicated! This...year after year it's the same thing. Problem after problem. Oh well, I better stop venting before I get cancelled off this forum. Thanks for the help!
