Thanks, Rod. I still think that Intuit, if it accepts MSO files, should also accept OOo files. If it does not, then that is why an issue should be filed at Intuit. In the meantime, providing there is sufficient info, like an API or file format specification, then a macro can probably suffice. Seems to me that Calc2qif would be a good start. -- Documentation Co-Lead PLEASE - keep list traffic on the list. Email sent directly to me may be ignored utterly.
