hi Richard I went through a similar experience two years ago (not from MSmoney though). i took an approach of taking a cutoff date and move the balances into GNUCash and offset against equity. On the securities it will be a bit complex as you have to arrive at the average cost. for a brief period i have to maintain both the systems, but now i only rely on GNUCash.

When it went 'sunset' I started looking around and found GNUcash. I signed up & I've been following you all here ever since. I made some tentative attempts to convert over but it has always been a disaster. I have personal bank accounts and investments with about multiple banks & institutions around the world (NZ, UK, Jersey, Malaysia, Australia, Singapore). I think you can imagine what my MSmoney records look like. It does not seem feasible to me to attempt a full on file transfer. I've tried a few times in the past but I just create a mess that I have no time to solve. I was wondering if there was a better strategy for a 'slow' migration. Any thoughts on this?
