| Searching the net for a way to get QIF files from Money to Quicken, I did find something useful. While it worked great for checking, savings, and credit card accounts -- I didn't have any investment accounts in Money to try it out with, so I'm not sure how, and if that would work. It involves editing the header of the QIF file in any text editor. Sorry, can't answer any questions about this as I used it to get my data out, it worked, and haven't used it since: Quicken QIF Import Fix Open QIF in a text editor and manually add an "account header". The account header is a special transaction that tells Quicken the destination account details for the subsequent transactions. The Quicken Interchange Format (QIF) files Specification describes it as follows: "The account header !Account is used in two places, at the start of an account list and the start of a list of transactions to specify to which account they belong." To add an account header, simply place the following lines at the top of your QIF file: !Account NChecking TBank ^ Example: !Account NDiscover Card TCCard ^ You have to customize the above text in the two places that are highlighted. Replace the word Checking with the name of your destination account. Make sure to supply the exact name used by Quicken. Next, replace the word Bank with the type of destination account. The account type can be Bank, CCard, or Invst. Import the modified QIF file as usual. It does not matter what is the destination account selected in the drop-down box labelled "Quicken account to import into." When you click "Next" to perform the import, Quicken will show a dialog box saying, "Transactions found for Checking account. Import transactions into Checking account?" You can click "Yes", and voila, the transactions will be in your bank, credit card, or investment account. You will be able to review the transactions prior to posting them into your register. This method has been tested in Quicken 2005, 2006, and 2007 for banking transactions. It may not work for investment accounts. |
