Anyone from Atlanta area who can help? noblcrown 03-02-2008

I have quite a bit of data which I entered onto an older Quicken
program on a computer in another state. I bought Quicken 2008 starter
edition, thinking that it would enable me to open the files which I
copied from that other computer but I learned that the 2008 version is
not compatible with older versions. I don't want to have to buy the
software that would enable me to make the conversion from the old
software to the new. I just need a kind soul in the Atlanta area who
somehow already has that technology and can convert my data into
something my 2008 version can recognize. Is there anyone out there
who can help me? 404-577-6602. Stephen

The starter edition is a teaser. It is for someone who has never used
Quicken and wants to try it out. You'll need to purchase some version of
Quicken, preferably of a recent vintage so you can enjoy the online banking
features. Otherwise, think spreadsheet.

To state Han's response a little differently,

It's NOT that Q 2008 is incompatible with prior versions ... it's that
the "Starter Edition" is incompatible. It's intended for those who
have never previously used Q.

No "Starter Edition" can import from any prior version, while ANY of
the higher levels can.

And if you don't want' to pay Intuit's prices, take a look on eBay.
It's also possible that the higher levels are also on your CD, and can
be unlocked by paying a nominal fee to Intuit.

I have several version of older Quicken available to me.

You can send me the file and I'll get them to the current version if you
wish.

Then send them back to you.

Regards,
John
