Babette, et al. Is it possible to send a "101"/ step-by-step instructions to those of us who need it to back up our data files for this exercise? Ernie ----- Original Message ----- From: Babette To: SIGLIST Sent: Monday, March 02, 2009 5:59 PM Subject: [ggcsquicksig] March 10th Quicken SIG meeting Below is the announcement for our March meeting, which you'll also see in the GGCS Newsletter when it arrives later this week. Please don't hesitate to come if you're already using Quicken! We need your knowledge and know-how to help us as we guide the new users through setting up their first accounts. You can be mentors, and will really help us with this new approach. Also, after we get the new users set up, we hope to have time to help you with any questions you might have about updating your data from an earlier version. If you've already bought the new version and haven't made the jump yet, we can do it in the classroom for Q.2008 or 2009. Bring your data files backed up to a flash drive, you can take the converted data home on your flash drive. Babette QUICKEN SIG SPECIAL CLASS FOR NEW USERS WE'LL HELP YOU SET UP YOUR FIRST ACCOUNTS AND GET STARTED 10 A.M., TUESDAY, MARCH 9TH, GGCS CLASSROOM Having a problem getting started with Quicken? Are you starting to use Quicken for the first time? If so, let the GGCS Quicken SIG help you set up Quicken with your first accounts, so you'll have a head start on using the program by entering the first few transactions into those accounts. Bring your last checking account statement and a credit card statement, so you can enter a some transactions after you set up the accounts. If you have a laptop, bring it to the class, either with Quicken installed or with your Quicken Program disk to install at the class. If you don't have a laptop, bring a USB flash drive to the classroom, so that you will be able to take your Quicken Data file home and restore it to your own computer. (If you don't have a flash drive, we will have a few available for purchase at the class.) None of your data will be left on the Classroom computers. In April, after you've had time to get more familiar with entering transactions into Quicken by hand, we'll talk about how to download transactions from banks and credit card accounts into Quicken.
