Try HELP, About Quicken while you're in the product.

Why do you need to know the version?  Do you have another question about Quicken?  Where did you pick "other"?

B/c I was asked in a necessary question to register for The Community.

Notacpa—the Help section is very limited to specific questions. Being so new, I am still unfamiliar with Quicken’s ‘language’

Then why were you registering for the community?  Do you have other questions about Quicken?

Actually, this started with looking for answers I could understand about reconciling my accounts. I found the reconciliation area but couldn’t understand the method (split screen debits/credits) for accounting for comparison to my bank generated monthly statement. AND it indicated a sizable discrepancy (wouldn’t balance) and I always balance😁. I have been using MicroSoft Money and then a follow on product(almost identical) for almost 30 years so it’s not like I haven’t been using software for accting. I feel it should be much simpler for these basic functions.

"About Quicken" is an option on the HELP Menu.  It's not an entry in Q Help.

Thanks, I’ll look there in the AM. I’m sure once i get past the initial learning everything will fall into place.

Volvogirl—I was told when I had a learning overview that the community was a good resource.

This might help with the learning curve ...
