Lost password.

[David]

My wife and I are both administrators on our home
computer. Our Quicken data is under her password and she
was in an auto accident this week, is there a way that I
can access that program to keep current with the bill
paying and deposits? Thanks for your help.

Only way is to try and remember the password. That's what
passwords are for. Can you walk up to an ATM machine and
withdraw money without a PIN?

Very sorry to hear your wife was in an accident....

Why is an MVP posting inaccurate information like this?
Aren't MVP's supposed to be reliable in their respones?
This was absolutely useless to the poster and anyone else
reading this question. For shame.

And I noticed you offered no solution, just an unsolicited comment
of no value.
