Cannot add account: userid too long to fit into dialog box
dave hulett
I want to add our paypal account to quicken but the dialog box asking for the user id/name only allows 32 characters and our companies email address is 34 characters. Changing the user if/user name is not possible. How can I add this account?

Bottom line, you can't.
The OFX standard is 32 characters for the username. And this isn't going to change any time soon.

You can go into your Paypal account and add an additional email address to your Paypal account. Then you can use that shorter email address to connect to Quicken.
