But since it was not copy protected how could you lose it? I mean backup copies should have been too easy.

Managing Your Money Andrew Tobias Needed
Sep 6, 2013 12:58PM PDT

I don't know how I could lose it. All I know is I converted from MYM to QuickBooks in 1996. I have gone through about 8 to 10 computers and have moved my household 4 times since giving up on MYM. I recently discovered an accounting need to go back to 1988 financial data and voila, I can't find my MYM program discs. Miraculously. I've got the data discs though.

My big problem is it looks like just about everyone else has lost them too. That why I'm asking for help to find them.

I saw Version 6 on Amazon, but it was the book only without the software. I would take copies as long as they worked.

Just so you know my future proofing on old finance information I made hard copy and for data the reports are put into PDF format. As it stands today, ASCII files and PDFs look to be best and never leave data in proprietary formats.

I have some old MYM disks

I save everything. Don't know what version it is. looked around and I have 3 1/2 MF2DD Discs. Disks 1 -3.
They say 1986-1989 Meca Ventures, Inc. Serial No. 350000
They are probably an early version.

Thank but I need a later version, 10 to 12.

I think the publish dates would be after 1991 for the Version I need. They were a 4 disk set. Unfortunately the ones on Amazon are the guidebooks only for the software and not the programs. I check Ebay weekly and there have been a few early Mac versions available.

Thanks for the info.
