From: Mo on 27 Apr 2010 13:25 Thanks for that Wasted - very encouraging news. My cousin who has Quicken - 1998 I think it is, can't run it on W7. He has asked a friend in the States to buy him Quicken 2010 but I fear he may run into other problems. Can't think why Quicken withdrew from the UK market. It's great to find another helpful Quicken user in the UK. Hope you enjoyed where ever it was you went!

The problem will be if he wants to convert old files, especially UK ones.

I have passed on your comments to my cousin and I think I shall search Ebay as suggested for Quicken 2008/9. Best wishes Mo > > > > >
