I think the problem is that we're talking about two *separate* things. Quicken has a notion of a 'recurring' payment, which is really just a reminder.. if you want to actually 'enter' the payment each month or whenever, you need to go online and upload it [as Pete has mentioned and you allude to]. BUT: it *also* has a "repeating" payment mechanism as part of its online billpay where the repeating payment _IS_ uploaded and _does_ happen automatically [just as Jim was asking about]. It works beautifully and requires *NO* additional actions by Quicken monthly or at any other time for the payments just to keep being pumped out. I've never found any reason to use QUicken's "recurring" payment mechanism, since the "repeating" payment mechanism did what I wanted with no fuss, no muss... /Bernie\ -- Bernie Cosell Fantasy Farm Fibers mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Pearisburg, VA --> Too many people, too few sheep <-- -- ---------------------------------------- To Change your email Address for this list, send the following message: CHANGE WIN-HOME your_old_address your_new_address to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Note carefully that both old and new addresses are required.
