Using Mondeydance for multiple accounts
I am switching from Microsoft Money to Moneydance. I have several businesses and I need to continue to track all of them in one place, which I can do with the old Microsoft Money. Is that an option with Moneydance?

Yes. You just create a file for each business.

And if I'm creating a file for each business, will I be able to pull them
up in one place for tax purposes? I tried Quickbooks and they were all
separate and no way to run everything at the same time.
Thanks

You cannot do reporting across different data files, that is really the norm with any application.
Keeping varied entities in one data file can get quite messy since you want both integration and separation concurrently.
A database can do it as you can have multiple tables which give the separation, however I am not aware of any personal finance program, which is the market Moneydance is primarily intended for, that has a database back end.
