SUMMARY
=======
 
Microsoft Money 97 and 98 use toll-free phone numbers to access Intuit
Service Center (ISC), a service provider for Home Banking. These numbers
are not available in Canada or if you are traveling with your computer
outside the United States. The default numbers provided in Money need to
be edited to allow access from outside the United States.
 
IMPORTANT NOTICE
================
 
A U.S. State Department license is required to export North American
versions of Money 98 (6.0) and Money 97 (5.0) outside the U.S. and Canada.
Localized versions of Money 6.0 and Money 5.0 support different security
methods for online banking and bill payment.
 
MORE INFORMATION
================
 
NOTE: The file(s) mentioned in this article only apply to the U.S. English
version of Microsoft Money 98.
 
Microsoft has created a self-extracting file called Isctoll.exe to
edit the default settings in Windows to allow you to connect to a toll
number from outside the United States. This changes the access number to
either (650) 306-9003 (San Francisco based) or (212) 957-7000 (New York
based). Make sure you can dial this number manually and hear a modem
tone before downloading Isctoll.exe.
 
The following file is available for download from the Microsoft Software
Library:
 
 ~ Isctoll.exe
