I really don't understand it but from what I know of software and
computers, I can't see any reason at all that MS Money for Windows OR
Mac, Gnucash, MoneyDance can't import Quicken data accurately and with
no problems, also vice versa but the fact is they can't.
If the Quicken data file is a known format (and it is) it should be
easy to import. Turbo Tax imports data and so does Tax Cut which isn't
an Intuit product so it's puzzling to me but we're not going to fix it,
all we can do is continue to push the software people for improvement.
