Find & Replace: Currencies

Movie Magic Budgeting can find Detail lines in your budget based on a used Currency.

Find by Currency

  • Open the Find tool
  • Select Currency (column) as the Find type
  • Type all or part of the Currency Name you want to search for

The Results table below will display any lines that match your search term.

The Account number where the matching detail line can be found is listed first, and may display multiple line results for each account.

The name you searched for will be highlighted in red. The most relevant matches will be listed first. You may match more than one Currency if they have similar names.

Click the Go To arrow button for a result to jump to that account.
