I've used Quicken for over a decade, and never have seen a 'transaction
password'
So I looked it up.
The transaction password is a feature that prompts for a password before
changing transactions on or before a specific date. It is used primarily for
archived files.
Do you use the password vault in Quicken? If so, and if you set that pw to
something you remember, you should be able to obtain the 'transaction
password' by looking in the vault.
Anyway, I HOPE you can.
