Hi.

I have logged this request before, but got no response from anyone. I  
find it hard to believe that I am the only one who would benefit:

In MD, I have many bank and credit card accounts. Some, I use  
frequently, whilst some others are either closed or very seldom used.  
The trouble is, they are all visible in the drop-down list, whilst on  
the home page, I only have the ability to hide those accounts with a  
zero balance. This makes the whole thing unwieldy. When I used MS  
Money, I found two features very helpful in this respect:

1. For accounts that were closed or very seldom used, I could define  
them as 'no longer used'. This would remove them from the list, but  
would have no effect on any earlier transactions that involved these  
accounts. Choosing this option was not final - it was reversible if  
required.
2. I could define an account as being a 'favourite account'. This  
would allow me to choose which accounts I wanted to appear on the  
home page, with the ability, via a drop-down, to display all accounts  
(except, of course, those 'no longer used').

It's a few years since I used MS Money, so I'm relying on my memory  
somewhat. I think I have described the gist of the features  
correctly, though.

Regards

Roger
