IF YOU HAVE A NEW VERSION OF QUICKEN (2008 OR 2009) AND WANT TO CONVERT YOUR
DATA AT OUR MARCH 10TH SIG MEETING:
1. Connect your flash drive to you computer, and using Windows Explorer, or the
window that XP opens when you plug in a flash drive, make a new folder and name
it something like "QUICKEN V.XXXX(Whatever version you're using) DATA"
2. Open your present Quicken program, and use the backup command to backup your
current data files to the folder you've made on your flash drive.
3. Bring the flash drive to the meeting.
4. We show you how to convert it to the Quicken version you will be using when
you update.
5. After installing the new program, use the Restore command to access the
converted files from your flash drive.

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?

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.
