Thanks for the pointer. I may try again sometime soon.

It would be nice if there was better help on how to export the QIF
file. Bythat I mean which options to select for inclusion. I am pretty
sure that is what triggers the 100+ "not supported" message boxes I
have to click through to import an account. maybe there will be fewer
if I import them in mass as you suggest.

Thanks.

IF you are going down the QIF route, when asked which files to import?
select them all by using Ctrl + click. That solves the transfers between
accounts issue.

Have a look at http://money.mvps.org/articles/quicken_conversion.aspx -
there are also other Conversion items on that site. Search on Quicken and
have a browse.

I do not respond to any emails that I have not specifically asked for.

Does anyone have any other ideas about how to convert from Quicken 2005
to Money 2006?

The menu item fails and exported QIF files an account at a time seems
rather silly. Particularly since transactions often contain
refererences to other accounts. Even doing them one at a time seems to
trigger an avalanche of "Unsupported section" errors.

It seems to have become an annual ritual. I keep picking up copies of
MS Money when I buy TaxCut and I keep giving it away when it cannot
import my Quicken Data.

This year I gave it a second try but my time is too valuable to me to
waste it doing by hand the things computers were designed to do. I am
not fond of Quicken and have thought of changing often but until Money
will pull in my data without forcing me to jump though hoops, I am not
going to change.
