Jim,

Try Ace Money http://www.mechcad.net/products/acemoney/. It may do what you
want. At least it is free if you can live with a "nag" to purchase
reminder. Or you can do a search on EBAY to buy a cheap original software
version of Microsoft money or any other money management software out there.
