John,

I just went to their website and learned a lot about iBank. You might want
to check it out, especially the tutorials:

http://www.iggsoftware.com/ibank/

It does import .qif files. That is how it brings in your data from Quicken.
It looks a lot like the regular Quicken. I hated Quicken Essentials and sent
them a scathing letter telling them how lousy a program it was!
