The brilliance is in its simplicity, and it even lets you know which PC currently has the file locked. My solution is to use a batch file to create a locking file before starting Moneydance, then to clean up the file when Moneydance is closed. I came up with this simple workaround, and hoped someone else might find it beneficial too. In my house, this resulted in constant yelling back in forth "Hey, are you in Moneydance?" Obviously there had to be a better way. However, unfortunately Moneydance does not implement any sort of locking scheme, so vigilance must be taken not to inadvertently open the same file concurrently. Made in America (in my home state no less!) by a core team of dedicated programmers, so you can't beat that!Ī common usage scenario is to store your data file on a network share so that it can be accessed by multiple PCs and/or multiple users.

I also appreciate their generous licensing, which allows you to install the software on unlimited PCs that you own, and even explicitly allows family members in your household rights to use the software, too. It is one of the few full-featured financial packages that runs seamlessly on Windows, Linux, and Mac.
