I've been using the Bucket's memo field up to this point to document why I made certain money flows, but it's no longer really feasible due to the small screen real estate and the fact that I also use the Bucket memo to document my spending plan (which I also extract into my daily bucket balance email). But now Trish's suggestion got me thinking ... if you really wanted a poor man's version of money flow memos, you could create some specially named Income buckets and flow the money from those into your expense bucket. Then when you view the money flows for that bucket, the "Bucket" column now acts like a "Memo" column. Sure it creates some extra buckets in your list, but at the end of the month you can merge these dummy buckets back into your Salary bucket, assuming you don't care about why you made money flows more than a month old. Kevin, if you're still debating how to fit a memo column into the list of money flows for a bucket, perhaps you could just give us the option to replace the Bucket column? If I had the ability the add memos to every money flow, I wouldn't really care what bucket it came from. Just a thought. Of course a mouse hover popup for the memo would work as well :) -Lance --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "No Thirst Software User Forum" group.
