I screwed up big time today.

While my tax accountant was working in 2006 and making various year end
postings, I was working on 2007 stuff on another computer. Paid bills,
posted purchases, paid bills...

About three hours of work.

Now I don't know how to end up with the information in one computer
without overwriting the others work.

I am considering trying to copy file by file from my work into the machine
the accountant used.

Any suggestions?

I hate to do that 3 hours all over.

You may have to rekey some of the transactions but I would look into
exporting the transactions you did today and import them into PT company
file on the other computer. That is assuming you can identify the
dates/transactions you entered. Export them by date range and type of
transaction, open them in excel and delete those transactions you don't need
and then import them into PT on the other computer.

Thanks for the suggestion.

I will try it.

I will be out of my office until Tuesday, so I will let you know after
that how it worked.

It would not work for me.

I had to hand entry all of the data.
