File imports

2008-05-07 Thread Easton Christian Family Centre
BlankHi

You currently offer the ability to create by importing Quicken (.QIF) files.
Are you considering going to the next stage and offering compatibility with
QuickBooks.

We currently run QuickBooks Pro 2001 and would love to move away from it.

I just considered it, and it would be grand!  :)

Unfortunately, the QuickBooks file format is not documented in the same way
that QIF is.  And over the years that people have wanted QuickBooks import,
no one has contributed the code to do it.

So, I'd suggest re-entering your data, or starting with a new data file in
GnuCash at the next convenient opportunity.

Unfortunately no.  The QB data format is proprietary and not documented.
See the FAQ:

http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/FAQ#Q:_How_do_I_import_my_data_from_Quickbooks.28TM.29.3F

We'd be happy to add support if someone donated the code to parse the
QBW data file format.
