Yes. Your fraternal association file will be independent of your family
file. All the accounts, categories etc. will be separate and indigineous to
that file.

You should be able to do a File/New to create a separate file.

By default, I think Quicken opens that last used file, so you need to
File/Open the correct one as needed.

Caveat: I don't know the procedures/terminology for a Mac, but something
similar should exist.
IMNSHO it is much easier to make shortcuts (on the desktop) to the
respctive qdf files, and launching Q by "opening" these. You can make them
show different icons. No need to fiddle with the open menu.
