Want to change register column order to move attachment column to the left, next to the flag.

Please make register columns movable so that we can rearrange them in the order we want to see them.
I want to change the register column order to move the attachment column to the left, next to the flag. I'm using Windows 10 Quicken 2019 that I downloaded.

You must be using the 1-line-per-transaction type register.
In the 2-lines-per-transaction mode, the Attachment paper clip appears underneath the Date, next to Flags and Tax-related icons.
To toggle between 1- and 2-line modes, press CTRL-2

I agree with Carol. when I updated it changed my column arrangement. Very frustrating not to be able to personalize to what we are used to seeing.

Some bank account register columns can be rearranged by going into Edit / Preferences / Register. Try the options under "Register Fields"

That's it for the time being.

If you would like to see this enhancement made in a future version of Quicken please click the "Up" triangle under the voting count in the big blue yellow box at the top of this webpage. Wait a moment for the vote count to be registered and updated before you go on.

Can't believe after all these years that they haven't yet implemented a way to arrange the register columns (and widths for the second line) to something the user wants to work with.

For goodness sake, get your super-smart techie to make it possible to re-order the columns. It can't be that hard!!!

Changing the columns of the transaction Register in a financial software solution in 2023 should not be difficult. Please let us order our own columns. Provide some relief for your customers.

The current year doesn't change the code that was put in place starting 30 years ago.  The Quicken registers are highly customized GUI arrangements, not some generic spreadsheet code that is updated each year.

I'm pretty sure that the Quicken developers know much more about what is difficult to change than you do.
The current status of this idea, says as much.
