So far I looked at gnucash and didn't like it am now looking at kmymoney2....will see how it handles my qif file or if it butchers it.... Are there any good ones you would recommend am using ubuntu 5.1

well I liked kmymoney2 but unfortunately importing .qif files don't work very well, So I have decided the quickest way to migrate the application was to use wine. Installing quicken into linux and then use a qdf to import the files into new install. Seems to have worked but some bugs may surface?

Can't quicken export to cvs or something?

I found one (maybe it was kmymoney) that was decent searching portage. Check synaptic, I'm sure there are a few in the repos.

well for starters it made mincemeat of the qif file, but I blame that more on qif format them gnu.

Kmymoney2 did a little better job but the whole look and feel of it was much more quicken like then gnu which seemed a little ugly to me .
I suspect if you like the plain brown manilla folder look gnu would work fine if you like a few extra bells and whistles try the other one?
