You can run both Quicken and Money on the same computer. You will
however find that QIF files will be pointed to the last program loaded.
I have run 2 versions of Money and 1 version of Quicken on the same
machine at the same time. My Mom uses quicken and I run it to answer her
questions. I run the two versions of money while deciding if I want to
upgrade my production version to the newest version.
The work around for the QIF files is to always save to disk and then
import them into the desired program. This has to be performed by
starting the Quicken or Money program and they use the import feature
from within the program.
I have not seen any other issues with running them together.
