Yes, I agree, I thought of that and looked on Ebay but I think most of the
cheaper ones are the US ones and I am not sure whether they will work as a
bridge from my early one to my 2003. One good prospect through, it seems once
I get the 2003 going, it won't be so bad to upgrade to later ones if I need to.

I will start another thread with Australia in the title as it may help some.

You've been great, thanks..

To the best of my knowledge, Quicken has never had any versions
like 7.41, 7.5 or 7.6. But I do notice that the Australian
version of Quickbooks mentions similar versiions.

It sounds to me like you are in the wrong group; I think you
need to post your question in some (Australian?) Quickbooks
group.

Yes I wish there was one. This seems to be the only one I can find.

I think it was originally 7.0 then after a few upgrades it ended up as 7.4 then
changed to 2002 I think and follows the year now.

Thanks anyway

Happy Christmas

Congratulations! ;<)
