<p>You shouldn't have had to load the accounts to the 'licensed
copy' as you can simply enter your license key into the trial
version to unlock the full program. If this is what you have done,
please advise as this should not have effected the data in any
way.</p>
<p>As Des has explained, you can create a new data set within File
--> New, and you can move between them within File -->
Open.</p>
<p>Regarding the import - if the QIF file format is available to
you when exporting from Quicken, 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>. In particular make sure you specify to Import into
a <em>new account</em> rather than an existing account. And you set
the source to "From another program".<br>
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>
