I recently acquired an HP Jornada 545 Pocket PC.

One of the benefits would be to run and synchronise Microsoft Money on it
and my PC.

However, when I come to synchronise the Pocket PC, the message comes up:

"This version of Microsoft Money for Pocket PC will only synchronise with
the US version of Money on your desktop PC"

Needless to say the version on my PC is UK.

Is anyone aware if there is a UK patch yet that would enable this problem to
be overcome?

Or any other ideas?

Suggestions gratefully received.

I phoned HP support and they say that they are working on the issue with
Microsoft. If you phone them they should notify you when they have a
solution. It was also one of the reasons why I got my HP!

Boz,

Afraid not! As you have found, the mini version is for the US market only,
thereby making it less than 100% compatible.

Perhaps if there are many UK users using the Pocket PC, then something will
be done.

Don't hold your breath.

Regards.

I'm particularly delighted because I upgraded to Money 200 specifically to
sync with my PPC.

Maybe if we all hassle MS they'll do something.
