A feature that I used with the 2001 edition for transferring shares of securities in-kind to another account seems to have disappeared. So I began updating using the process of using 2004 deluxe and then 2013 deluxe. Somewhere along the way I messed up all of my data files, and 2004 can't open them, and doesn't seem to convert them. When I restore from a backup (depending on which backup) sometimes I get a "Quicken successfully restored your file" message, and to open it from the file menu. When I do that I get the message "cannot open file". When I validate the file, I get the message "this file needs conversion". What would I need to try next? I've been using the 2001 deluxe edition to enter investment & checking information from various statements as far back as 1982.
