[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 1316420, member: 24098"] I would recommend taking this opportunity to cut Microsoft Money loose and migrate to a replacement like iBank. Money is no longer under development and support stops at the end of this year. This means that there will be no security updates for the product. This is a particularly bad thing since Money connects to the Internet and contains financial data (in other words, it's a very high value target for hackers - and being that it's a Microsoft product, it likely has more holes than swiss cheese). Listpro looks like it would also be easy to find an alternative to - if I'm reading the description right, iProcrastinate, Things and possibly Circus Ponies' Notebook all look like they may offer equivalent and better options. With that said, given your limited storage, if you must use these products, I'd take a look at CrossOver. CrossOver is a commercially developed version of WINE that will allow many apps to run without Windows at all. Both ListPro and certain versions of Money are listed as being compatible. But to tell you the truth, I think you'd be better served making the switch to a different app and trying to port the data over. [/QUOTE]
