With some of the local software stores offering "deals" of a free Q2005
software with TurboTax, I've a question on whether that new ver. of Q
will allow me to import the old Q99 software into it. Am I correct that
it will not? If so, I have a copy of Microsoft's Money I've installed -
I received it earlier this year with my new Dell. I was hoping to be
able to import the Q99 file(s) into it, then export from Money into the
new ver. of Q. What's not clear to me is whether Money will successfully
import the Q software. The online manual for Money states:
"In just minutes, you can copy your Quicken data into a data file for
use with Microsoft Money 2004. Money 2004 will convert files from
Quicken U.S. versions 4 through 10, Quicken 2002, and Quicken 2003.
Microsoft Money detects the Quicken file and displays the file name in
the Quicken File Conversion window. If you would prefer to use a
different file, or if Money does not locate a file to upgrade, click
Convert Quicken File on the File menu and then double-click the Quicken
file you want you use. Money will create a backup copy of this file, so
that your data is safe, and then begin converting it.".
Not clear to me is whether Q99 is one of the above ver's. The only note,
on the help menu, is that it's Quicken Basic edition release 8.0. I'm
hoping that "release 8" is what Money is calling "ver.8". Any thoughts?
