[ale] GnuCash

[Tom & JaVonn]

Jason:

I'm attempting tonight to import data from a heavy-duty Quicken user into GnuCash.  When I grabbed the QIF files off his disk, GnuCash saw them but didn't read any content.  After running them through dos-2-unix conversion, it did no better.  I'll try about exporting from Quicken officially.

The import docs explain how loose Quicken is with accounting, where GnuCash is real (double-entry) accounting, so the import process should be asking the user to help match things up.

I post my results here...

Tom
