My bank has recently ceased sending ofx files that are appropriate to Quicken 2000, saying that their files are for 2001 onwards.
I had a 2002 disk and upgraded thinking that I would be in range. and duly saved my "2001 onwards" file into the oxfdata sub directory of Quicken as I had always done in the past. However Quicken 2002 will not accept the data. It says that I am registered with the bank etc, as indeed I am because I have been downloading and using these files for 5 years. However it tried to connect to the Internet and then said QL-249A error. I tried setting the firewall to "Allow All" but this did not help.
Unless anyone knows differently, it looks as though I will have to revert to entering my bank details manually again, unless I wish to subscribe annually to later editions of Quicken.
Such is progress.
Incidentally 2002 does load each identity's files from the disk much quicker. I think it must use compression.
