Quicken utility for importing MS Money Data - Anyone get it to work???? Scooter 05-06-2006

I'm a casual MS Money 2002 user and I've just bought an Australian
version of Quicken 2006 Personal Plus for local conditions.

I'm now kicking myself I never tried the trial version because it seems
awfully difficult to import my old MS Money data.

I saw mention of a conversion utility on Quicken's US site which I
tracked it down at http://web.intuit.com/support/quicken/dataconverter/
and installed it. When I run it though there are problems. The
extraction of the data from MS Money 2002 seem to go fine with 3 BMP,
XML and CSV files being placed on my desktop. However when the
importing process starts Quicken wont start because it says that
qwwin.dll is missing BUT IT IS THERE!!!!!

My questions are as follows:

Has anyone got this conversion utility to work?

I don't understand why it doesn't find qwwin.dll (Iinstalled into the
default folder). Is there differences in the Australian and US
fersions of quicken (apart from localised issues like bank names etc)??

Is there any other way to import the the MS Money 2002 data??

I know one thing, if this problem goes on much longer I'll be getting
pretty cranky.

Would really appreciate some help!!!

Long shot: Are you using Windows XP? Are you running with admin
rights? If not, try that. Also make sure Quicken is not open
when you attempt the import.

I believe there are basic differences, and my guess would be
that the Money conversion utility is not intended to work with
non-US versions of Quicken.

By the way, is your Money2002 a US version of Money?

> Is there any other way to import the the MS Money 2002 data??

If the Australian Quicken can import QIF files, then yes, there
is another way to import Money data. Export Money data to QIF
file(s), then import to Quicken. But I know nothing about
non-US versions of Quicken, so I can't really help with the
details ... QIF file importing can be messy.

It wasn't but the import process seem to try to run Quicken and that is
when it says it can't find the dll that is there.

>is your Money2002 a US version of Money?

Yes

The Aus version can import QIF files.

Could you outline the proces to follow this method??

What QIF files do I export from Money???

Thanks

The best information on creating new Quicken files using QIF
export/import can be found in the MSN Quicken Users Group in the
FAQ on merging Quicken files. While you are not planning on
"merging", the info in that faq covers almost everything you
would want to know. If you get to the point that you have very
specific questions, post back: I - or someone here - may be able
to help. You will want to know that starting with Q2005 US,
there are restrictions on importing QIF files; those
restrictions basically just add a small amount of additional
work to the process; there is a post on the subject by me (look
for "jepollard") in the Intuit Quicken forums in the Other
Topics forum ... titled "How to Import QIF Files to Non-cash
Accounts, post Q2004"
