How can I change the name of my main Quicken File
bpoppe1953
I just archived my 2016 and earlier transactions. I want to change the name of my file from 2015 to 2017. How can I do this and still keep my transactions. I tried changing the name via files rename. It did not work.

There is no "files rename" command in Q ... so what did you actually do?
And, in what way did it not work?
Also, what BUILD of Q are you running? Do HELP, About Quicken for this info.
