The first time that happens to you, I suspect there will be a lot of space removed. I know that sounds odd. |

| Re: file size Sounds about OK for that much data. It is the quotes that take the space. Also make sure you have the Compress my file option set in Tools > Options Backup. In any case Money will decide if it needs to compress you file. You will some times see it do that when you take a backup. -- Regards Bob Peel, Microsoft MVP - Money Hints/Tips http://support.microsoft.com/default...d=fh;EN-GB;mny UK Wishes/Suggestions mnyukwsh[at]microsoft.com "Bill Saxon" <bsaxon[at]adelphia.net> wrote in message news:a3d46d42.0401010500.275e9173[at]posting.google.com... - quote - > I just converted from Quicken, Q2003 to Mny2004.

| file size I just converted from Quicken, Q2003 to Mny2004. I have data going back to 1994 insofar as investment transactions and to 1999 insofar as my check register. The size of my Money is 41 MB. Quicken usally runs about 5-6 MB for a file normal file this size. I have no problem with the large file but I just wondered if it was more or less normal. I converted a quicken file that was somehow messed up and had started growing and reached 140 MB. It was impossible to fix it with Quickens antiquated Qif file export/import setup so I converted to Money and it converted without a hitch and was reduced to the 41 MB size. Thanks. |
