    wow, thank you so much for the information! I really appreciate your help. I will check out all of the links. Why on earth can't they make the program interchangeable? I don't understand that at all.

    Karen, it would take almost a complete re-write of both Quicken Windows and Quicken Mac to make the programs truly interchangeable. For optimum performance, each product uses features of the operating system it's running on which don't exist on the other platform, from the core database to the way they draw to the screen. It's not impossible, but it would be a difficult undertaking.
