To merge or combine Money file, make a copy of the more complex
account using the operating system. Give that file a new name to
represent the shared accounts. Export each account that you want to
merge from the other account (the least complex). Use loose qif.

Import the files all at once into the now-shared account. Use
Cntl-click to select files for the single import.

Yes, that is easy, just run setup and point it to the old backup file.

This is what I'm talking about. I want to merge all the records from both
programs to "Money 2006 Bus." I am just unsure where to start.. If I
export twice, won't the second time blank out the 1st export? If so, how do
you combine it before exporting?


Thank you for your time thus far!

Doug

Merging to one program, "Money 2006 Small Business", is simple.
File-> Open the other file. It will convert. Switch between files
with the MRU (most recently used) list at the bottom of the File
menu.

Merging the files is more complex. That would involve QIF export
from the simpler file, and import all at once into the other.

Default Combining 2 differnet Money's to one

Hi,

I have a small business and am running the "Money 2003 Small Business" and I
have on another computer "Money 2004 Deluxe" for my personal. I will be
getting the "Money 2006 Small Business" and wanted to know if there's a way
to merge all the records into the one program (Money 2006 Bus.), without
losing data?? It would just make things so much easier to goto one program
for all of my records.... and maintain all of my years worth of data from
one program.

Thanks to all that reply!


Doug
