Hi, Gang.

This morning's One Step Update offered my "Free Update" to Release R 3 - so
I accepted, of course. Download and installation were smooth in Vista
Ultimate x64 SP2 beta. (I'll try it in the Win7 alpha OS later and let you
know if there are any hangups there.) At the end, instead of clicking on
Run Quicken, I exited and then clicked on my Quick Launch icon and now Help
| About Quicken says: Quicken 2009 Deluxe Release R 3.

I haven't spotted any differences yet, but then I haven't really looked for
them. I'm just entering today's activity, as usual.

You might be interested to know that one of the problems R3 is
intended to correct is one where transactions are downloaded but
are not available to Accept ... when the Quicken account was
"open" during the download.

Hi, John.

Yes, that's VERY interesting since, as I reported here, I had that problem
just a couple of days ago.

Thanks for that tip.

Hi RC - don't you click on the button that offers information on what the
download is about to do (to you?) before you accept it? This was one of the
items listed.

Hi, Andrew.

You got me! I SHOULD read the list of fixes, of course, but sometimes I'm
in too big a hurry.

But, as I recall, the "free update" notice in OSU didn't offer an
explanation. Did I just overlook it?
