Do you perhaps have your account set up as a Single Mutual Fund
Account? Then you might have to convert it to a brokerage account
before you can convert it to an IRA. You defineitely cannot, on Quicken
Basic, convert it to a 401(k) account.

No, flipping that attribute to a 'yes' or 'no' still doesnt give me the
'convert to a 401k or IRA?' option.
Per the help file I should see that option under the account attributes
section.

I am beginning to think the limitation is due to it being quicken basic, and
the help file is generic across all versions.
