Creating data files from large, single data file

Thomas Gormley

Have a large data file (QDF) in Quicken for windows that I've never subdivided (goes back to 2013 or so.) Because it's so large it now floods my RAM. Wish to know if there's a way to break his large file into smaller (say annual) ones. Tips?

I'm not very literate in jargon, so explanations need to be fairly simplistic. Thanks.

Unless you are a day trader in the stock market, a six year data file is not considered large. You will need to explain what you mean "floods my RAM"? If you meet the system requirements for installing Quicken, you should not have any issues.

Performing year end copies is strongly discouraged.

Please click HELP, and hold down the CTRL key while you click About Quicken.

What's reported there? If you can take a screenshiot, post it here using the "paper with a folded corner" icon above.
