You can reinstall Q2008, using the same technique as above, to prevent that install from uninstalling Q2010. You'll have to decide for yourself whether any of the little idiosyncracies that can result are meaningful problems for you. At one time, having two different newer versions of Quicken installed, caused a significant problem: the most recently installed version, crippled the other version. I don't see that anymore. I have Q2009 and Q2010 installed on the same pc, and I don't see any problem with them. -- John Pollard

I'll do the day by day on the new Q2010, then weekly compare to Q2008. Thanks for yor help, John! -- Best regards Han email address is invalid |
