Recent articles mentioned end of year coping with Dollars and Sense.  I
have just attempted my first end of year with MacMoney.  All of last years
transactions become unavailable in the sense that a new set of files is
created.  How does one gracefully reconcile accounts across the few months
it takes for all checks and credit cards to clear?  (The old stuff is
available by closing the current year and reopening the old year, but
the reconcile feature would be useless without the new data from the current
year.)  I feel foolish resorted to paper and pencil, just like I did
before using the product.  Even humble Electric Checkbook let you bridge the
year end, then delete old transactions!
