It was probably 15 or 20 years ago that Quicken ate an entire year's worth of checkbook register, unrecoverable.

Obviously you can't use it to run a checkbook, but it tracks your activity if you log it in. __________________________ Shel Horowitz, mailto:shel at frugalfun.com, 413-586-2388 "I make the world INSIST on learning why YOU'RE special" Consultant * Copywriter * Author * Speaker * Meeting Planner Expertise: Frugal Marketing <http://www.frugalmarketing.com> Frugal Fun <http://www.frugalfun.com> Writing, Editing, & Publishing <http://www.accuratewriting.com> _____________________________ On 2013-03-29 18:35, Ken Russell wrote: > ** Be sure to fill out the survey/skills inventory in the member's > area. > ** If you did, we all thank you. > > > > Greets Friends, > > So infuriated with Quicken! > > Have had a nice long look at gnuCash, but I find it difficult to > sync with various banks and credit cards. > > I'd love to get any thoughts on good alternatives to Quicken.
