That is possible, as I noted earlier I had not tried it. However I did use
the conversion tool offered on the Intuit web site and it converted my Money
files.

Have you TRIED to IMPORT a .qif file into Quicken 2005? Maybe you will get an
message saying "Feature no longer supported." I don't know.

Why not create a new account in Quicken called "test1" and try to import a qif
file. You can create one from your "real" checking account or you can use the
demo of Jaya123 (see below) to create one for you by go to the Financial page
and putting in dates between 2001 and 2005.

Dick, Al

Again I don't understand. I again opened Quicken and it allows for export
and Import of QIF files, but it does sound like Intuit's way of doing
business which is why I left Intuit several years ago. They continually
find ways to remove features so that you either have to purchase it from
them extra or buy their next higher product such as going from Basic to
Deluxe. Of course they threatened for years to no longer support Bill Pay
direct years ago trying to force you to use Quicken bill pay. They finally
removed it, but because of customer complaints they allowed it with the next
release. They added an activation code several years ago, but removed it.
In Quickbooks they were charging you as much to download the next years
payroll tax table as it would to purchase the new version. I don't know
where they stand on that now. They removed the payroll features completely
out of the Quickbooks Mac version........

Anyway nothing Intuit does will surprise me, but as of right now on my
Quicken Deluxe 2005 it has both the Import and Export feature.

We're telling all of our Jaya123 customers to NOT upgrade to Q 2005 and to get
Quicken 99-04, MS Money, AceMoney, GnuCash or anything BUT Quicken 2005

Maybe it's just import QIF they killed? At any rate, that opens the gates
for the OP to migrate to Money by exporting all accounts to QIF and then
importing all of that to Money. Lots of stuff will be lost. Like Loan
accounts, among other things.

Hi Dick

After reading your post I opened Q05 and it still has the export feature in
it's "file" drop down. It may not work, but it is still there unless I am
missing something on this post.

Oooops: M04 can only convert Q03 and earlier. (M05 converts Q04 and
earlier.)

Since Q05 has eliminated QIF export, that's about where you are with a Q05
data file. It's too bad neither of these vendors really care about their
customers or their data, otherwise there would probably be better
portability of the data.

Thanks to you & Dick for the information. I guess I'm SOL if I want to switch
to Money then. I've had it with Q & their abysmal technical support. Oh
well... Thanks.

Money version N cannot convert Quicken version N or later. It can
convert earlier versions normally. So if past patterns hold, Money
2006 would be expected to convert Quicken 2005.

M04 can only convert M03 and earlier. (M05 converts M04 and earlier.) Since
M and Q come out at roughly the same time each year, Money can't know the
Quicken formats before it releases. M and Q change formats each year for no
apparent reason. For this reason, M04 can't know about Q05 format--it was
two years in the future.

I have tried to convert Quicken Premier 2005 files in Money 2004 & a trial
version of 2005, and continue receiving the following error dialog:

"Your Quicken data is contained in several files, and Money could not find
all of them; or you are trying..."

It continues to inform that all Quicken database files must be in the same
directory. All of my Quicken database files do reside in the same directory.
I even did a file copy to a clean directory and Money still could not convert
them.

Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks.
