I actually used a checkbox on the "first draft" of my fix. Then decided it was 
redundant since an empty / not-empty edit box meant the same thing (and I would 
only need to store one new thing for the account, the string; instead of 2, the 
string and the checkbox state). But a checkbox may be more obvious to the user. 
My other thought on the string itself: per a document I found (I think from 
Intuit, I don't recall), Quicken, using an irreversible "secure algorithm", 
combines a 128 bit random number associated with the data file, the USERID, and 
the Branding Identifier (BID) of the FI to generate the CLIENTUID.   Using the 
same exact string (the file ID) for different institutions would be a little 
less secure. Jeff
