Budget Sync on WM5

Does anyone know of a good finance software that will also sync budget's from Microsoft Money? By this, I mean that I've already created a budget in Money and I want the pocket PC software to automatically import it and work from it. Money for pocket PC will allow you to create a budget, but it doesn't sync and Cash Organizer fron Inesoft is the same way (unless I'm missing a feature on one or the other).

Any suggestions?

I suppose there no suggestions. I've never found any software which would sync budget from Money. I was talking with Inesoft, they told me that they are going to implement this feature in the next versions but not now.
So don't expect to have it in near 3 months or even more.

Actually, I just downloaded a trial of SPB Finance and it DID import my custom budget. Syncing still seems a bit buggy, but I'm working on it. However, to other users out there looking for something like this SPB might be worth looking in to.

After more testing, I have concluded that SPB Finance is worthless. It simply refused to consistenly sync with my x51v. Sometimes there were completely ActiveSync errors, sometimes it simply got stuck "looking for changes" in SPB Finance... either way, it's not worth the time.

I'm disappointed too, cause I think this was my only option to auto-import a budget.

I downloaded the trial version of spb Finance and get the same problems as Forge42. I have reinstalled twice and reset even more. On the first uninstall it still left Activesync with an option to sync Finance but without a check box. I had to search the registry for all entries of spb finance and manually delte it myself. On the second install it did sync but with a critical warning on the Axim of lost data. Additoinal sync have caused Activesync to stall on "looking for changes" and then crash.
