I have been using QB 2004 pro since Jan 2005. It does everything I need, particularly invoices and inventory.
Recently I had to replace my computer. I built a nice one that has windows 7/64 for an operating system. QB 2004 wouldn't even load however just about everything else I have did, and ran just fine.
QB told me to get QB 2010 pro so I did. It installed fast and imported my last 2004 backup file. The new 2010 started working right where I left off with 2004, no complaints. I was very pleased to avoid typing all my data back in.
My question (sorry for all the added info) is about the backup files I create. 2004 was making backup QBB files that were about 1.2 MB in size. Using the exact same data 2010 backups are more than 6 MB in size. What is going on?
Is this normal or do I have a problem?
Thanks in advance.
