Quicken 2007 - Windows XP Pro, SP3

I am taking lots of taxi cabs and charging them on my credit
card. These are all a business expense.

However, when they download from my bank, the payee is
always slightly different. It will always say "taxi" and
also "nyc", but it will also have an addition to the payee
name such as the medalion number etc.

Is there any way to set up a memorized transaction that will
read all payees that have the word "taxi" or "nyc" and fill
in the category automatically?

Will something like *taxi* work?

Thanks.

Louise

Yes, in the RENAMING rules dialog you can trigger when PAYEE contains a
particular character string (eg: "TAXI").
