<p>Moneydance supports automatic downloads via Direct Connect. You
can view a list of financial institutions that support this feature
here - <a href="http://infinitekind.com/fi">http://infinitekind.com/fi</a>
Unfortunately it appears your bank does not support Direct Connect
access.</p>
<p>There is another connection type used by Quicken and some other
personal finance software, called Web Connect. Moneydance only
supports automatic downloads via Direct Connect - This is for
security, and you can read more about why we only support this
connection type in our <a href="https://infinitekind.com/blog/online-banking-privacy-security">blog</a>
and also in <a href="http://help.infinitekind.com/kb/online-banking/why-doesnt-moneydance-support-express-web-connect">
this article</a>. By only using Direct Connect, we can guarantee
that your username, password and financial data only ever exists
with your bank or on your own personal computer, and at no point
are your details stored on another server.</p>
<p>Without Direct Connect, you are still able to import your data
into the program. The best way to get your files into Moneydance is
to use a web browser to download them from your bank's web site.
You can download into QFX, OFX or OFC files (aka Quicken or MS
Money files), any of which will import cleanly into Moneydance.</p>

<p>Thanks for the detailed response. I checked my old Quicken data
file and the connection to The Peoples Bank (Biloxi, Mississippi)
is by Express Web Connect.</p>
<p>I certainly agree with your comments about the security of
Direct Connect as a preferred download method. Fortunately, this is
a fairly limited transaction account so manual entry or an exported
file will work for me.</p>
<p>I appreciate your comments.</p>
