There is something else to consider with your QIF conversion:

To avoid transfers from turning into two separate transactions, it
is important to import the QIFs into the new file all at once.
This is done by selecting using Ctrl+<click> to highlight all of
the files you want including. Further, before doing the import,
the names of the investment cash accounts should be named something
alphanumerically higher than the investment transactions of the
account. So you could have "Merrill" and "Merrill Cash", but you
would not want "Merrill Inv" and "Merrill Cash". "_Merrill Inv"
and "Merrill Cash" would be good. So one way around this is to
export investment accounts to files who's name starts with an
underscore.

I am converting from 99 to 04. My 99 data file did not convert as
described in earlier messages. Microsoft's solution was Knowledge Base
Article 178830. I followed the instructions to export gif files for
every account in 99 and to import the files into 04 - a monumental task
with about 50 accounts and many import anomalies, which required
checking all transactions manually.
Here is an even larger problem now: is there a way to do the same with
the security prices? I have about 7 years of price data on securities
(roughly 300,000 entries), which I don't want to loose and cannot
transfer manually.
Any thoughts or help will be appreciated.
