Upgrade from Quicken Personal Plus 2004 to 2015 Error

Nic

I have a file in Quicken Personal Plus 2004 that I have tried to import into Personal Plus 2015.  I am using the trial version as I feared it wouldn't work.  Looking at other posts I have used the "supervalidate" in 2004, changed to a short file name and also removed password.  None of this has worked as I still get the error of "Unable to load DLL: C:\Program Files (x86)\Reckon Accounts Personal\convert03\qd3.dll".  That file is definitely installed on my computer though.  I have reinstalled 2015 with no luck.  I don't have any other versions of Quicken to convert to as a "midway point".  That can I do please?  Thanks.

Your problem is that Version 2004 files can not be read by Version 2015.

You need to go through a conversion process, which is surprisingly difficult.

The answer is "rtfm", as you will need to install some older versions of QPP to convert the database ( I think you may need to install multiple versions, which is quite ridiculous!)

Reckon should provide a conversion utility which can detect what version the files are and export a database compatible with the latest version.

Good luck !

Thanks John,

Do you have any idea where I can find older versions of Quicken to install through?  I don't own any other versions and I haven't found any on the web.

Kind regards,

Nic

Reckon did provide an upgrade service for files, where you could send in your database or backup and they would return in the latest format.

I am not sure what service they provide now !
