Question : Error when updating from MS Money 2000 to MS Money 2008

I can't seem to update my Money data file from 2000 to 2008. I get the error simply, that it can't be done, and when I click to report the error, I get the following:

Granted, the file is quite large, about 17MB. Maybe that has something to do with it?

I've just installed the trial version of Money 2008 standard for Windows. I'm using Windows XP on a VM Fusion machine with my MacBook Pro

Answer : Error when updating from MS Money 2000 to MS Money 2008

It turns out that the problem is my data file is made with the Canadian version of the program, which is not compatible with other versions.  :'(
