I have just downloaded the balance predictor and am a little dissapointed in the fact that i can get a general balance over the
specified time frame , but cannot click on and get an actual balance at any time during the time frame as i could with microsoft money,
am i missing something?

   Hi Carolyn

   I do not believe you are missing something. I think it is the case that the Balance Predictor extension does not have as much functionality as the one in MS Money. I am sorry you feel disappointed..

   Sincerely

   Carolyn,

   There's another extension called "Forecaster" that I think does what you're looking for. It was not written by the Moneydance crew themselves, but I think it may be available from their master collection of extensions. It does provide a spot balance at any point on the graph (any day) if you "hover" your mouse cursor over the point where you want the balance.
   

   Try it and see. Since I got Forecaster, I don't use the Balance Predictor at all any more.

   Hope this helps,

   David
