    I also do all of my banking online - and I use the "auto bill payment" 
for everything except tax deductible payments.  They're in the checkbook so 
it's easy to add them up for tax time.  I really should buy Quicken and 
automate everything - and integrate the bank with TurboTax but I never seem 
to get it done.  I have a copy of MS Money & suspect I could use that.  IMO, 
the internet has really improved the way we manage financial activities (as 
long as proper security measures are followed) .  I can see where my wife 
spent money before she gets home. But  I've *learned* not to mention it as 
she thinks that's a bit *too* intrusive..   ;-)

    Hope everyone is having a nice weekend?  And congrates to Rick on the 
graduation of your son - !!!
