MS support was not able to fix problem using file repair or any of the other techniques we tried. Money opens up and then says it has to shut down apparently due to the corrupted file. MS tech support suggested there may be some utilities out there than might work but did not provide any specifics. Has anyone successfully used one? Using Money Plus 2008 but problem started with Money 2007.
Money 2005 UK edition - by back up file .mbf will not restore as it says it is corrupted or is not an .mbf file
5 +years of data and no Money Support in the UK or from the US
Tearing hair out and very worried as all my consultancy company records on file.

Same Problem
Feb 08, 2009
-   I have the same problem with Microsoft Money 2002. I lost around 1 and 1/2 years data. Luckily, I had a backup on my hard drive taken 1 and 1/2 years back. Otherwise, I would have lost around 8 years data.
Post if you found a solution. I am trying to input the data manually.-   appupappu
There are a few things you can do. Manually open up the *.mbf file, does it open?
If it doesn't, the file type *.mbf may not be associated to Money 2007 anymore. Very common.
If the file becomes too large they also become corrupted. It may be possible to export the *.mbf file to Microsoft Excel. Make sure you create a copy of the file before manipulating it.
Actually.... if you have a system administrator. They should have a back up tape, you should already have a path to the file you can give them. They can do a backup and restore of a day or two ago and see if that mbf file was not corrupted as well.

There was a microsoft update in October that invalidated my use of Office 2003. This is an authentic copy with all the holograms and registered with Microsoft last fall when I loaded it on my computer. I was working away from home at the time and did not have the CD with me. Ireturned home reinstalled the Office 2003, still same message about user. Tried a couple more times same result. Started having problems with windows. I downgraded from Vista to XP using the 2 CD's provided. I noticed last night however there is no product code on the CD's and I assume to use them as with all Microsoft products that it will ask for a product code. Can you tell me please what the code is to use the recovery CD's?
