[moneydance] Moneydance fails to start

[David Carlson]

Jim,
Thanks for responding.  Actually, I got into this pickle by doing a 
"Save As" one too few times, so I do have a fairly recent(i.e. minutes 
old) backup.  My problem was that I could not open any file or even 
start moneydance with no file.  If you are following this thread, you 
will see that rebooting my computer solved the problem, but left me with 
some cleaning up to do.
