Importing a portion of a quicken backup file into current file

cjsmaier

My spouse and I just discovered we've been updating two different Quicken backup files for about seven months, each within our own Windows user account. Previously we were having no problem accessing the same file and updating our own account data. How can one of us import the new data from the second file into the correct backup file without having to import ALL the transactions of ALL the accounts in the alternate backup file?

I suggest you just export the appropriate date range of the transactions in the impacted accounts of one of the Quicken Files to QIF files and import the QIF files into the other Quicken file:  https://www.quicken.com/support/how-do-i-export-data-quicken
