In 7.5, when you were through with a transaction, and wanted to enter the record, you could hit the down arrow key, both in regular transactions and in between periodic transactions. It dosen't work now in 8.0.2. FN is aware of this problem and will fix it I assume. But it goes further: In periodic transactions, now, whatever I do, I cannot get a series of periodic transactions to fill in, one after another. If I hit the enter key until the first in a series enters, then a new, blank transaction appears, not the next one in the series. The tab key does not do it either. Is there any way to get a series of periodic transactions to enter automatically in 8.0.2? All my periodic transactions are completely filled in, no fields remain to be entered.

When entering transactions in version 8.0, use the "enter" key to move from field to field and from transaction to transaction.I think this is primarily a keystroke issue. It's true that they keystrokes used in version 8.0 are somewhat different from 7.5. When using periodic transactions, I find that if I simply use the "enter" key consistently, invoking periodic transactions works perfectly. - When you've completed the first entry of a group of periodic transactions, hit "enter" to move to the next line.
- The system stops at the "check number" field. Hit enter.
- The system goes to the "date" field." Hit enter again.
- Depending on the nature of the transaction, the sytem will then go to the next field requiring an entry (typically, it will go right to the "charge" field if the entry's action code is "enter amount"). Type in the amount and hit "enter."
- This will take you to the next line, "check number" field. Repeat the process (being sure to hit "enter" to move on) until all the entries in the defined date/set# have been entered.
If you follow these steps and still have problems, here are a couple of more suggestions:- Verify there are more payees in the set and date range requested. You can do this by selecting the Payee name report, Periodic Transactions in Date Order.
- It's possible that your payee alphabetical index is corrupted. You can fix this by running Test & Correct for Payee Alphabetical Index.
- Verify the the set number & date range specified.

As we discussed on the phone today, you noticed that you had this problem when the "Num Lock" key was accidentally turned off. The problem seems to fix itself with the "Num Lock" key is properly used. ------------------ Renée Trudeau Financial Navigator Service Provider
