If my bank allows it, can you access my bank account? I think this is a great idea that can even upstage Quicken. I stopped using Quicken - it is a pain to have duplication. However I cannot annotate my transactions with my bank. (this cheque was a donation for charity http://lydiapress.com). As a result, actually, I dont keep track of my account (shouldnt confess this here!) Yes, it is a great idea because IF I GIVE YOU READ-ONLY ACCESS TO MY ACCOUNT, WHY SHOULD THE BANK CARE? WOW!
