I agree.
Since I haven't played with the QIF importer lately, which of these
problems with QIF doesn't the present QIF importer address? If it
address the problems, why mess with it? If it doesn't I guess it still
requires some work.
Regardless of how well/not well the QIF importer works, it s
The problem is that when clearing a transaction you have an idea of
what transactions are already there. If you have multiple no-info
transactions, there is other information to match them to existing

I was assuming clearing via online systems -- however, the format of the
file being received by gnucash should be the same either way. Thus

Are you assuming clearing via online systems or incorporation via
online systems? I want to be able to use download QIF/OFX in order
to load transactions into Gnucash, and then manually clear them at
the end of the month with the paper statement.

Ok, I can send it to you. Although I thought it might be interested

In the Header there should be an attribute VERSION:102 or something that's
close to the version your FI uses.

Try http://www.quickbooks.com/ and search for "iif" It gives 40 matches,
such as:
What is an IIF file?
What are IIF file headers?
What is the IIF file format for importing a

Honestly, I don't know if I could tell the difference. I don't have
any of the Vanguard OFX handy to look it up for you, but I can grab
some.

Hi,
Just for verificaiton - which ofx are we referring to? There are two
very different formats for this standard. One based on XML (newest
version) and one based on SGML(the one most banks seem to be supporting
now).
Just wanted to know.

Personally, I would love to be able to just download QIF from Netbank
of Vanguard directly into GC. However I don't think I'll ever be able
to do so, because both of these sources require some QIF massaging
