 I am still using Quicken 99. I know but it does everything I need and
it's like an old friend. However, I would lke to continue (restart)
to download and import data from my Bank which exports in 'oft' and
'csv' Quicken 99 requires 'qft' or 'qif'. Is there any way to convert
'oft' files to 'qft'?

I have searched 'Google' but have not yet come across a utility to do
this. Any ideas?

I think you'll file that "qft" is really "qfx" (and "oft" is
really "ofx").

MS Excel can "read" ",csv" files and the free Excel macro
"xl2qif" can convert Excel "rows" of Quicken transactions into
qif files. (Google for the macro).

That should have read: "I think you'll find that ....".

Thanks John, have downloaded the macro but haven't tried it yet. My
last 'experiment', changing 'oft' to 'qft' resulted in the data being
imported but the dates of the transactions in the imported file were
in the US form (mm/dd/yyyy), not the form I use (dd/mm/yyyy). Took me
a while to figure out why the account would no longer balance!
