Money 2002 will only do XML reports and this is not what I need. I'm trying

to export my portfolio. I don;t want Money 2004, trial or otherwise, on my
system. I did an install for someone else and it is loaded with strange . .
.. ah, features. SpyBot S&D took care of them. Also, IIRC, Money 2004 data
format is not backwards compatible. Yeah, I could copy the data to a new
directory for 2004, etc, but I should not have to do that. FWIW, Quicken
help and Quicken Usenet NG are equally worthless regarding thins same
problem. It appears that once you've started with one of these products, you
are forced to stay with it as there is no way, short of manual entry, to
transfer a portfolio from one program to the other. Oh well . . . I've lived
with my version of Money this long, I guess I can continue to put up with
it.

I never tried it, but you can export data from money as XML through a
report. Can't recall whether it's in 2002 though, so you might have to use a
trial of 2004 to do it. Of course MS will give you no help on it....

I've got an interesting problem here. I need to transfer files between Money
2002 and Quicken Premium 2004. The first four attempts at having Quicken
read exported QIF files has been a disaster. Quicken is absolutely no help.
Their built-in help is referring me to webpages that don't exist. There is
supposed to be a tool to convert the file format, but the fine print says it
is for converting between previous versions of Quicken and Quicken 2004, but
it "may work" for converting Money files. A Quicken guru says I need to
export Money files to XML in order to bring the files into Quicken. Can
Money 2002 do this?

Anyone have experience with this type of problem?
