What if you want to keep using your version of Quicken but are
willing to pay Intuit the money they want to charge you for the
upgrade?
Can that be arranged with Intuit?

I use Outlook for this, I keep a separate "monthly bills" calendar set
up that I use to enter bills as they arrive. Once they are paid, I
change the color by changing the category (Bills Due vs Bills Paid)...

The calendars in Quicken & Money lack this capability, no idea why...
