it transactions, I do not know about the csv export.  If I remember correctly I exported all of my quicken data in one shot and imported it. Sometimes GnuCash has to "chew" on an import for a while.  I frequently get a message in the top title bar that Gnucash is "not responding".  Wait a few minutes and see if it finishes.  I gave up on .csv imports because I could never assign the right fields. All I use is .qif and .ofx. If csv is your only choice, try loading one of your csv files into a spreadsheet program, it makes it easier to see the layout. If it is a layout problem the spreadsheet program will complain. Then look for inconsistency's  in the data fields. If that doesn't work then you will have to look at your csv file the hard way, with a text editor. --JEffrey Black M.B.A. ___ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user - Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
