April 19, 2005 ???

What, exactly, is going to happen to my Quicken 2002 on that day?

Will my bank stop sending data in a certain format?

Will Quicken 2002 "expire" or stop working?

What the hell is going on?

Thanks, User

This is from the Intuits web page on the sunset policy,

: The following contains important information for Quicken 2001 and 2002 customers.

I am no expert but interpret this mean Direct and Web Connect will quit functoning, along with downloading stock prices/news, credit card data, and so on and on and on.

I always enter transactions manually anyway. That is the only way to know if you're getting ripped off.

My banks web sites will have to suffice for comparison to my Quicken register.

What I don't understand is why they just can't use both methods. If the OFX method is so much better, it would surely supplant the older technology in time without having to f*ck with peoples lives.

What a crok.
