Quicken 2006 came on a computer I bought earlier this year, but I chose not to use it because it doesn't sync with the version of PocketQuicken that I use on my Palm. However, a few months ago I wanted to download some transactions from my bank, and found out that Quicken 2003 is no longer supported by Quicken, and so if I wanted to download transactions I would have to upgrade. Sigh. So, I had to upgrade PocketQuicken, too. The advantages of upgrading are minimal other than being able to download transactions, so that was basically blackmail by Intuit making me upgrade from a software package that is only three years old that I was perfectly content with. And now, I find out that PocketQuicken (new version whatever-it-is) has a glitch in it, as shown below.
I was using it earlier this evening, and all was okay. But when I turned the Palm on a few minutes ago I got the following image:
I browsed over to the accounts page, and it looked okay. I came back to the register, and then it looked like this:
I have already been in discussion with Landware about this quirk (not the first time I have seen it), and so I looked at the preferences page to see the font sizes. Look at the font that is selected:
The good news is that it is easy to fix. Just exit the program and launch it again.

I share the frustration of having to change something you are completely happy with just because of advanced technology they think we must have. I hope my cell phone doesn't break down. I kept the first clunker for six years. I have gotten used to my flip phone and I like it, but it has features I don't need or use.

I know what you mean. I just had to trade in an old cell phone, but they gave me a replacement for free. The phone is so old that they are no longer supporting the technology for it.
