Problem wtih qif import

Anonymous — Thu, 12 Sep 2002 07:13:15 -0000

Created a qif file from Quicken 2002 with categories,
reminders etc.
all the dates are missing, none of the categories came in.

Version 0.9.5 fails to run

Anonymous — Mon, 01 Oct 2001 12:22:15 -0000

I have version 0.8 which runs ok. When I installed
0.9.5, it puts up the splash screen, and then falls
over complaining of a broken pipe, file 6, on the
command flush $eng in cbb_setup, line 25.
I am not a tcl/perl expert, but this seams to be
setting up the interface to the perl engine, and may
be due to something funny on my perl set-up. However,
as the earlier version works, this surprises me.

Date format change

Anonymous — Wed, 28 Feb 2001 16:01:36 -0000

My bank just "upgraded" there services, and now the qif
file I download from them has a different date format
than it did before. cbb does not read it correctly.

Old: D01/26/2001
New: D20010126 [Other stuff (time?)]

There was also a change to the lines starting with N,
when the transaction is not a check

Old: N
New: N00000000000

cbb Reads these OK, but shows 00000 in the check #
field, where it used to be blank.

Is this new format still "legal" QIF format? and if so,
will cbb handle it in the future?

I wrote myself a little conversion script, so I can
still use cbb, but it is a lot more trouble.
