Reminder for income: how to set every other Friday?

The program doesn't appear to have this option. Under monthly it
has dates, under weekly it has days of week but neither will
address income that is every other Friday from the first date I
schedule. This is odd because I figure others are also paid on this
schedule.
I enter 4-16 as first date then choosing every first or second
Friday puts it on the calendar as monthly even though I'm under the
weekly tab. Any help appreciated. Using Monthly won't work because
that ties to dates only.

Pete234,
I have been using MD for a few months now. When I first set up my budgets and reminders I had the same problem with my income. I also get paid on bi-weekly basis. Every other Friday. I also tried the weekly tab, but it didn't work just like you described. The way you can set it up correctly is to choose the Daily Tab when you are setting it up and choose 14 days from the 1st day you have it set. It will then display it on the calendar correctly as well as for reporting and forecasting. Hope that helps.
TJ

It wasn't intuitive coming from Money but I figured it out a little after posting. Thanks

Agreed. It certainly wasn't the same as money. Glad you got it going.
