    I deleted some accounts from Money Small Business 2004. Any way to restore them?

    Do you have a current back up before the deletion? You will need to restore that and save as a different name so you don't overwrite anything (just in case)

    In addition to Cindy's information, this could be motivation for you to examine your backup policy. Money 2006 and later will keep 4 timestamped backups by default upon exit. The number can be changed from 1 ... 99. Once you are up to your number, Money will delete one as it adds a new one.

    In addition, Money Plus, including Money Plus Sunset, can do that plus it can do the same for your scheduled backup. I  make the scheduled backup to a flash drive. So if you changed to Money Plus Business Sunset, you could have that.

    You could also considider making a batch file that makes multiple backups. Have the batch file delete the oldest, rename the next oldes to the name you used for the oldest, etc and last copy your latest backup made by Money to the name you use for the newest backup that the batch file handles.
