This article was previously published under Q79917 SYMPTOMS When you try to install Microsoft Money to a shared folder
on a network, you receive one of the following error messages:
CAUSE This issue occurs because Money is not designed to be
installed as a shared program on a network. Because of this, Money does not
understand Universal Naming Convention (UNC) path names. UNC path
names use the following format: RESOLUTION To work around this issue, map a drive letter to the shared
folder on the network, and then install Money to the mapped network drive.
MORE INFORMATION Microsoft does not sell a site license for Money. You can
install and run Money on a network. However, because Money is not designed to
support multiple simultaneous users, only one person at a time can use the
program.
Although Money includes options for printing to a network
printer, running the program over a network is not supported.
CAUTION: Running Money from a network drive may cause loss of data if the
network connection is interrupted. Running Money from a network is not
supported by Microsoft.
