Which bank?
While we're waiting for your response to Boatnmaniac's question which will tell us what downloads are available.
You can start by going to the financial institution's website and figure out how to download the transacttions into hopefully a Web Connect .QFX file. A .QIF or .CSV file will work if you then pass it thru ImportQIF (free from quicknperlwiz.com) for importing into Quicken.
.QFX files can be directly imported into Quicken after the first import which will require that you choose the corrrect Quicken account to link to.
I think they mentioned ..

it's when you created the ADD ACCOUNT. You should see the name listed as the account name -
@fjphilli2 - If you are downloading with DC, why do you want to manually download and import transactions from your online bank account? I'm not criticizing…just trying to understand so an appropriate response can be provided.
(BTW - You'd mentioned that you had tried to download in QFX format but that it "had become a OFX file". I don't think that is even possible without running it through a conversion program or manually editing the QFX file in a text program and then saving it as an OFX program. Do you think that perhaps you might have accidentally downloaded an OFX file instead of a QFX file? I know that sometimes, if the font is too small or with certain font styles the "Q" in QFX and the "O" in OFX can be somewhat easy to misread.)
Looking at the file properties of the downloaded .QFX file will show it to be an .OFX file, but that doesn't matter to Quicken.
