Re: [GNC] QIF import ignore account
Michael, that is generally true and I'll hazard specifically true with respect to XML files. But MS does have some things they refuse to let you open with browsers other than Edge. It is a source of contention in the tech world and there are plenty of blogs and articles about it. As far as I am aware though, each of these cases is something the OS generates a link to and not a user file.

Re: [GNC] QIF import ignore account
It is not "That is how this old version Quicken does dates of form 20xx" but
more or so thank Intuit for proprietary touch to QIF file format where they
left good deal of ambiguities. It has behaved like that up to 2017 version
which the latest version I had used. You will have to normalize them in to a
consist format. I had used *NIX's crude sed script on thousands of transactions
in the past to fix them during migration (WSL is fine) ...
I hope the code comes intact ... no error checking and there should be no
special characters or white spaces in the file name

Re: [GNC] QIF import ignore account
There are various apps and services to convert QIF to CSV. Perhaps try one and see if that produces a better result.
