Sorry. I thought it was a one-per-day sort of thing. I didn’t think of size limits. I used to use digest mode and some days there was no activity at all. I guess it just depends on how many people are actively participating, and then combine that with those who quote without trimming. The only

Hi Jason, I've been using AceMoney for my personal accounts since 2005 and like it very much but I also started using GnuCash two or three years ago for a family house-building project and, for that purpose, it has been more useful than AceMoney. I recently started running personal accounts on G

Try setting up sub-folders and mail filters. That might help at least shunt the mail off out of your main inbox till you can look over it. I also commented in the other thread you can select digest mode, which will give you one message per day, but is more difficult to follow threads and reply.

If you have the install discs for that machine, consider converting to a VM if you want to ditch Windows as the main OS sooner rather than later. (you could dual boot, but since the end goal is ditch Windows entirely, and you likely need AceMoney you won’t want to reboot to switch back and forth

You are most welcome. What I ended up doing is saving all the Quicken individual account files in every export format I could figure out (created dozens and dozens of files in .qif, .txt, .csv, .xlsx formats), just in case like you, I decided I needed the data later for some reason. So far,

You'll want to approach this project with some time and no deadline, else you might get frustrated. Get GNUcash installed and running on the target machine. In AceMoney, export the largest account you have into a .qif format file and get that file to where GNUcash can find it. Then in GNUcas

Found a link which indicates AceMoney can export in QIF format. QIF is not a well standardized format but GnuCash can generally import it. You may also like to consider the following python program for translating Acemoney files to GnuCash files. No idea how current it is and what versions of Ace

Jason AceMoney does not list any export formats in its documentation. GnuCash will not be able to read AceMoneys file format unless someone has written a translator and this is unlikely. GnuCash can import OFX/QFX, QIF, CSV files if Acemoney can export data in any of these formats. OFX/QFX is g
