Can anyone who's used both Quicken and MYM comment on the
documentation for each program?  Or for single-product
users, how's the doc. for your program?  Once upon a time, 
I used MYM for a DOS system, but gave up for various reasons, 
among them the lack of decent product and feature documentation.
I don't necessarily expect the documentation to teach me all 
about personal financial management, but it would be helpful 
to have examples on how to begin using such a program when 
you're in the middle of paying off loans or when/how to 
begin recording account data for existing accounts.
Now, this was years ago, so perhaps things have changed.

Another question:  does either program automatically tell
you how much of a mortgage or loan payment is going to
pay off the principal and how much to interest?

Thanks for any info.
