I have Quicken 2002 Home and Business and Simply Accounting Version 8.5A.
I'm trying to export from Quicken into Simply but can't seem to make it
work. In Simply, I've tried to import miscellaneous transactions,
transactions etc, but nothing seems to work. So I'm wondering if the two
versions are compatible? All I can import is a qif file from quicken, and
what simply accounting wants is an imp file.

Thanks for any help

I'm trying to eat my soup, but all I have is a fork. No matter how hard I'm
trying, I can't seem to get any food into my mouth. What could be the
matter? I'm wondering if a fork is a good utensil to eat soup with. I know
it says on the packet a spoon is required, but I'm hell-bent on using this
fork because it worked when I was eating my salad.

I'm wondering why you are even wondering whether the two pieces of software
are compatible? It should be clear to you. By what logic do you assume that
they are compatible if you can plainly see that they do not have a filetype
in common in their export/import functions?

If you have access to the data formats required by Simply Accounting,
consider writing your own conversion routine as an Excel macro - if you look
on the web, similar work has already been done. (
http://xl2qif.chez.tiscali.fr/xl2qif_en.php and others - use Google).
Finally, sonsider asking in a forum for Simply Accounting, because everyone
who has been successful in the conversion will be in a discussion forum for
Simply Accounting, not in the Quicken forum.

Wow, two paragraphs of arrogant drivel before you finally became somewhat
human and barely useful.

My ISP's newsgroups, didn't have a Simply Accounting forum, but they did
have a Quicken one. I'm sorry for being so stupid... I guess I should just
go off myself now... make your life easier.

You really need to work on your "helping" methods. Why you even go to
newsgroups to "help" people is beyond me. It must be to satisfy some
egotistical defect in your polluted gene pool. All I asked for was some
help, because I had been told that you can import your banking information
(that comes in Quicken format) into Simply Accounting. I really didn't need
to be belittled by you. I just needed an answer. I hope this helps YOU in
your long road to dealing with people in a nicer manner. Oh, and maybe
removing that big stick from your ass would help too.

Sorry, I'm with Mike B on this one.

If the only price you pay for help is having to read through a couple of
paragraphs of "drivel", it's still well worth it.

Moo's response did not endear him to anyone who might have been able to help
him. If he wants more free help, he needs a thicker skin.
