My foreign currency bank accounts that have had transactions entered have changed to sterling after we had a new server installed. Bank accounts now locked as sterling. Can anyone help? Please!

Hi Sally
This is a known "feature" and there is a fix.
You don't say which version you are using, however, if you go to the updates site and download and install all the updates.
http://www.sage.co.uk/updates/Line50.aspx
I guess you are using Version 10
Sage Hotfix 7 will solve the problem
After installation there will be a utility SageBankCurrencyChecker.exe that fixed things (It will be in your program directory Default is C:\Program Files\Sage\Accounts\).
Backup before you do it and get everyone else out.
It is a slow process so best to install and run on the machine hosting the data.
There is not a lot of feedback from the software, leave it to run.

Thank you so much for this. As you correctly assume I am using v.10.
You have saved my sanity!
