You can make changes to the Money program window by choosing the Tool's menu
Options command, clicking its General tab, and then using the buttons and boxes of
the General tab.
Setting Display Options
The Display box presents you with several options. The Start Money With This Page
Open box lets you tell Money what it should display in its first window. Initially, Money
assumes that you want to see the Money home page. You can, however, pick several
other options. For example, you can choose to display an account register, a list of
accounts, a list of your upcoming bills, and several other sets of information as well.
Beneath the Start Money With This Page Open box, Money provides three other
check boxes that let you control information that appears on the Money home page
(and several other places as well). For example, the Display Charts Using Patterns box
allows you to control whether Money uses colors or patterns to show the data
markers in charts. The Print Charts Using Black & White Patterns box allows you
to specify how Money should print its charts. The Turn Off Sponsorship And
Shopping Links box allows you to tell Money that you don't want hyperlinks to
advertisers appearing in the Money window.
Setting Color Schemes Options
The Color Schemes box lets you choose a color palette for the Money windows. If you
click the Color Schemes box's button, Money displays a list of color scheme options.
If you want to make this change, your best bet is just to experiment with the different
color schemes.
Setting Calendar Options
The Calendar box lets you tell Money the weekday on which your weeks start. The
initial setting is Sunday. You can easily change this to some other day by using the Week
Starts On box.
Setting Sounds Options
The Sounds box also has several options you can set. The Play Sounds check box lets
you tell Money whether you want it to play sounds, obviously. If you work where it is
important to be quiet, clear this check box to turn off the playing of sounds.
Clicking the Change Sounds button displays the Windows Sounds Property dialog
box. You can use this dialog box to specify what sounds Money-or another program-
plays when certain actions occur. For example, you can use the Windows Sounds
Property dialog box to specify the sound that Microsoft Windows makes when you
close a program.
As you no doubt noticed during your work, Money plays audio help files as you use
the program. In general, what Money does is play audio help files the first few times
you work with a feature window or dialog box, and then the program stops playing
the audio files. If you want to reset this feature, click the Reset Audio Help button.
You might want to do this if it has been a while since you have used Money, or if you
are new to Money but someone else has already been using the copy of Money you
are now using.
Setting Advisor FYI Options
In the Advisor FYI section of the Money home page, Money displays a Customize
link. Clicking the Advisor FYI link displays a dialog box that lets you choose which
information appears in the Advisor FYI section of the Money home page. The options on these five dialog box tabs (Choose Advisor FYI, Account Balances, Monthly Spending, Important Dates, and Investment Prices) are self-explanatory
or can easily be learned by simple exploration.
