I need to have my existing Quicken 2006 Personal Plus for home use and a new Reckon Personal for a club treasurer. How?

    It is relatively easy to have 2 different databases that use the same version of RPP.

    Do you really need to keep using version 2006 ? I am not aware of a good reason to keep with such an old version.

    Alternatively, if Ver 2006 suits your purposes, is it possible to have 2 databases using version 2006 ?  You could experiment with creating a second database in QPP 2006 and see how easy it is to open or switch between the different data sets.

    I would expect the best solution is one version of QPP and two separate databases.

    Hey Linda, the personal range can only have one version installed at any given time. If you set up a virtual machine (with Win 7 or 8 you have XP mode) you could run QPP 2006 from their and then the Reckon Personal as a native install. For physical install of both programs you would need 2 machines. ^Mirko.
