Hi Kevin, I have data in Win Quicken going back to 1990 and in my QIF exports it looks like the change in date format is to distinguish between 19xx and 20xx years, since the export only supports a 2-digit year -- 19xx years are formatted using m/d/yy instead of m/d' y.
I've decided that it's silly to go back that far with MW, but if you need someone to test with a very large volume of creaky, cranky old data (>100,000 transactions) just let me know. And just for the record, I've tried to get my data out of Quicken for several years now and Moneywell is the first program I've come across that actually is able to handle it (so far -- I'm only about 1/3 done, but I'm confident).
