Ok Microsoft,

People have been posting for YEARS that Money doesn't handle savings bonds
well, or should I really say AT ALL... People have their hacks, but they
are just that, hacks.

For gods sake Microsoft, get on the ball and put the function in, and for US
savings Bonds, the database with interest rates etc. is published by the
feds in the same format all the time, so heck, you could import that
automagically and keep all our US savings bonds up to date....

From a loyal MS Money Customer that has been waiting FOREVER for you to do
something... Make the money I spend on upgrades every year really worth it
for me for 07! If the governement can make a program to do it (Savings Bond
Wizard, I know, they didn't write it, but saw a value in it), I would sure
hope that Microsoft with all its resources could handle this little request.

Tired of hacking my files to keep my numbers straight.

What's the hack?

I agree it would be nice for them to add the feature, but there are hundreds
I'd rather see them add first since dealing with Savings Bonds and current
interest data from SBW is a trivial matter. I just did an update yesterday,
as I do every quarter or two. Took all of five minutes and that included
downloading a table update for SBW. Backing up my Money file for the week
took longer than that.

BTW, Microsoft doesn't read this. If you want to get this input to *them*
there are far better ways. Not that they'll care.
