Open the QFX file with NotePad, and look for account data at the top of
the file. I don't know the QFX format, but I'd bet there's something
there that will help you know what to look for in Money.

If that doesn't help, edit the file replacing identifying information
like names, amounts, and account numbers, and post it here. Someone
might be able to help.

Well, I have tried the fixes in kb 179836 for ofx files, 829143 trouble with
downloads, 895866 how to reinstall and uninstall and have had no success. I
would conclude that inspite of its popularity I would say money is just a
very poorly developed product if it cannot provide something as simple as
downloading a statement into an account. Can anyone tell me why something
this common in the financial software should be impossible for Microsoft to
accomplish? Similar to Frontpage being unable to display a picture. Duh.

Thank you Mark. I am trying your source unsuccessfully but at least there is
something to try.

I download my credit union statement and Money 2008 says the import is
complete but it does not ask which account is to accept the data and the
import goes no where. I have deleted the temp files, done a quick fix on
the Money file, set imports to use standard names, even downloaded the
statement to my hard drive and used -file-import- to try to get it. Same
thing always happens, file says "import complete" but the data is nowhrer.
I have called the credit union and they say there is no problem. I have
tried this process on three different XP machines with the same problem each
time. the statement file is in "qfx" format and my internet file
associations associate QFX with the Microsoft Money Import Handler. Does
anyone know why I can't import my credit union data. all other accounts work
flawlessly and this one never works. Who can I ask for help?
