: Hi Mark,
Thank you for the quick reply. I manually converted a few of the dates and that did indeed solve the problem. As I do have a lot of data to import I would like to take you up on your offer of emailing a beta version 6.1 with the fix. The quicken version I am using is called "Swiss Edition". Thanks again,
Alan
