OK here's my question. According to FICO Score Summary my Lenght of Credit History is VERY GOOD Average of 7 years, Oldest account was openned 17yrs ago. When I check the tab Understanding your Score under What's hurting your score: The last thing was I have a Short Credit History - Average of 7 years. I'm so confused, please help. Thanks

There is another thread on this board discussing this topic. My oldest account is 19 years old and I still get the same conflicting message - I would just ignore it.
