Using Quicken 2009. I have prior years' information backed up (copied) by
year, along with the attachments relating to the various transactions. I
have moved each year into its own folder. I recently needed to find a
scanned item in my 2007 transactions but I couldn't figure out how to get
the attachments to be "available". How can I restore a prior year's file
copy and have the attachments available as well?

When you moved the files, did you also move the corresponding
QuickenAttach folder that contains the actual attachments?

Yes, I put the "2007" file found in the 'Attach" directory into the same
folder as the 2007 copy. It still said it couldn't find the
attachments....even though the attachment icon was in the register.

I haven't tried this, so this is theoretical on my part.
I THINK, you need to create an Attach folder in whatever folder your 2007
file is.
In that Attach folder you need a separate folder called 2007.
In that folder you may have 2 folders named Acct and Txn.
It is in those Acct and Txn that you will have hexadecimal named folders.
In those folders will be the attachments themselves.

I believe you have to copy that entire structure to wherever you moved the
files in order to see the attachments.
