Cal thank you very much. You've solved my problem.Changing the date in
control panel worked like a dream. Many thanks. This was my first visit to
the live community and it was a great experience. Many thanks

Yes. Money uses the Windows settings.

Close Money.

Start-> Settings-> ControlPanel-> RegionalAndLanguageOptions. Change
the short date with Customize-> Date, or change the region to one
with the desired date format.

Open Money. File-> Export or File-> Import as desired. Once you have
imported to get the dates as you want them, you can close Money and
change the Windows settings to what you want to use normally.

Keep extra copies of your Money files in case you don't like the
results of something.

Thank you for the possible solution - the date formats are different - 2000
is in yyyy/mm/dd and 2006 is dd/mm/yyyy. We have searched help in both
versions and cannot find how to change the date format. Any ideas??

Also, the site you suggested gave us the process we originally followed.
The directions seemed to work, but the result was incomplete as stated in our
original note.

That's a very odd symptom. Were there possibly two computers
involved with different date formats (mm/dd/yyyy vs dd/mm/yyyy)
maybe? They both need to be the same.


Did you follow the steps from
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;178830 ?

I'm importing data from Money 2000 into 2006 and the dates and quantities of
investment transactions are not transferred. I exported multiple accounts
within a file with File/Export and changed the file names to reflect the
account names (with .qif after them) to a removable flash drive. Followed
import instructions (File/Import), set up multiple accounts and moved them
as a group. The transfer appeared to be successful except date and
quantities were not present. Any ideas?
