Tags not Working?
I recently installed the newest version of Moneydance with no problems. However, I have noticed that tags are not working the way they used to. I had three tags set up that I could use the tab key on my keyboard to quickly move from tag to tag, then return to accept it.
But now, with the newest version, I can't quickly choose the tag. I have to physically move my cursor to select the tag I want, instead of just using the keyboard keys. Am I missing something or did this change?
I can't see anything about tags anywhere in the menu choices so I'm a little confused about them. Can you help me?

Hi Carol,
Thank you for contacting Moneydance support.
Generally, you can find information about tags in this article from the knowledge base.
If you wish to edit your tags, you could use the "Find and Replace" extension.
Using the Find and Replace extension you can set the search fields in the 'Find' panel on the left. Then choose 'Find'. This will display a number of transactions at the bottom of the window.
In the panel on the right, you can select 'Modify Tags'.
Then specify 'Add tags', 'Remove tags', or 'Replace all with', and choose the tag you'd like to use.
Once you've picked the settings you need, choose 'Replace' or 'Replace All' at the bottom of the panel on the right.
If you're happy with the changes press 'Record', then 'Done'.
You should create any tags you want to use before opening the extension. To do this, simply enter the tag into the 'tag' field of any transaction. To add multiple tags to one transaction, just separate them with a comma.
I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions or need more assistance.
