Updating to Quicken default categories
CaptainMurray
I have been using Quicken since 1996. Is there a way to update the categories in my data file to use the Quicken default categories? I have tried creating a new file and importing the data but the old categories are automatically added.
Thanks in advance.

Don't think so. You already have categories on them. You would have to do a Find & Replace to change the category.

Thanks, that is what I was afraid I would have to do.

The built-in categories are available (press
Ctrl + Shift + C
, select
Options > Manage Categories
) but we must merge each old category into the new category (press
Ctrl + Shift + C
, right-click on the old-category, and select
Merge with another category
).
