Hmmmm....played with adding an attachment tonight to see what it looks like.
I used the saved PDF of my income tax return from last April.
After going back into Quicken, it occurs to me there's no tool (is there?)
that I can easily use to see which transactions have attachements associated
with them? I kind of had to remember roughly what date I used for what
transaction.
Filter doesn't have an 'attachment' option as it does for 'flagged'
transactions. That would have been nice to have.

So if you have a s***load of transactions spread all over your Q files, how
can you find which ones have transactions? (One could enter a flagged
message and use the aforementioned filter, but that seems bogus).

Did Intuit leave out a useability item here, or am I missing an an obvious
point?

Another point from the help file is that you can't attach to an investment
account transaction? Whoa! That's a biggie - especially if you'd like to
keep track of sales and purchase receipts. What were they thinking off not
to allow that??

Look under the date. There's a little icon that looks kind of like a piece
of paper with a paperclip on it when you attach a .pdf. As for attachments
in the investment accounts, that's a great idea. Maybe for 2007????
