other software that can read Quicken files. Thus to my knowledge
you would have to use Quicken to open the files and export the data
to the QIF format.</p></div>dwgtag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/397491862016-04-28T07:59:42Z2016-04-28T07:59:42ZQuicken<div><p>Hi Harriet,</p>
<p>Can you let me know what file formats are available to you when
exporting from Quicken? If QIF file is available, you should follow
<a href="http://help.infinitekind.com/kb/importing-data-from-banks-and-other-programs/importing-data-from-quicken-in-qif-format">
these steps</a> to import your data. In particular make sure you
specify to Import into <em>new account</em> rather than existing
account. And you set the source to "From another program".</p>
<p>It is highly recommended to export all Quicken data into a
single QIF file, as doing so makes the import process much
smoother. Please use the option in Quicken to export "all
accounts," if available. The one exception to this is if you have
accounts in more than one currency - if thats the case, then you
can follow <a href="http://help.infinitekind.com/kb/importing-data-from-banks-and-other-programs/how-can-i-transfer-my-data-from-quicken-into-moneydance">
these steps</a> to import multiple QIF files.</p>
<p>Please let me know if QIF file format is not available to you,
or you continue to encounter issues when importing your data.</p>
