We all have that one application that we can’t live without. It’s the first thing we look at in the morning, and the last one we use before we shut down for the day. It’s always on our minds, and always open on our computers.What is the one application that you can’t live without? Email applications are a given, so we’ll take that one out of the running. So let's talk about the one you really can’t live without, and how it makes your day better, and more productive.idea stolen from web worker daily at http://tinyurl.com/ydrvwg

MS Money - i only open it once a day (no need for leaving it open all the time), but it tracks every single account I have down to the cent. It drives me crazy if i go more than a couple days without updating my accounts. close 2nd - Excel. Use it for so many things

HoeKey (custom, global keyboard shortcuts for launching programs, running commands, etc.)e.g. - Winkey + I: launches Firefox, Winkey + O: launches Outlook, etc. (not like those combos were doing anything in the first place)[Edited on December 13, 2006 at 1:13 PM. Reason : ]

most major banks are set up with MS so that MS Money can automatically download transactions into your Money account. It'll even auto-categorize based on historical trends, saves a LOT of time for me[Edited on December 13, 2006 at 1:30 PM. Reason : no excel trickery required]

Either Visual Studio .NET 2003 or Visual Studio 6. I spend more time programming than I do on the internet.

^^ How is that compared to Quicken? I was thinking about purchasing something along these lines now that i'm out of school and actually need to keep track of my finances

i haven't used quicken a whole lot. i've been using Money since 99 or something like that. i've tried quicken a few times just to see if i was missing anything, but i always went back to Money within a few days

Autocopy extension for FireFox is a must have for me.Though you have to adjust that anytime you highlight something it will overwrite what you are trying to paste in. Also anything with tabbed browsing.
