It makes a huge text file, You can reduce the amount of data included in the QIF file. Then Email the QIF file. Open your data: File>Export>QIF file. Having said that, you can (if the recipient has the same version of Quicken) zip the contents of the Quicken files, there are five files. The five files are (Located where you have the Data file OR in the Quicken folder) DataFilename.IDX DataFilename.QDF DataFilename.QEL DataFilename.QPH DataFilename.QTX Then Email the Zip file. If you have the data file passworded, you would also have to give the recipient your password. You could remove your password before you Zip the data files. Then no password needed. -- CSM1 http://www.carlmcmillan.com --

Go look in your Quicken Data area, and there will be 4 files that need to be sent as attachments. qdf - qel - qph - idx

This is what I did.....I backed up the file to my desktop and then attached the qdf file from my desktop to an e-mail. I sent this e- mail with attachement to myself. I then opened the e-mail with another computer and saved the file to the desktop of that computer. Then I opened Quicken 2009 and did a file\restore browsing back to the file on the desktop. All seemed to work well....Do I really have to send the other three (or four) files? I am sending a file to an attorney out of state who needs it quickly. He has asked for me to e- mail him the quicken file. I have heard of problems in the past, but ran this quick test, and it seemed to work with just the .qdf file. What am I missing? |
