Lionel, you might try Sage. I used it a while back
and found it good. These days I use a set of spreadsheets for my accounting. I
just shove my trades in every day and reconcile with the brokers statement. The
other expenditure is straightforward.

Quicken
Quicken 2002 has
caused me more headaches and lost time than all other software that I
use.
<SPAN

It is unstable,
entries do not maintain their values. It operates like the Microsoft program
that is/was used by the Dept of Energy that the Russians brought to our
attention. Apparently they continued to use pen and paper accounting
until they were certain that the Microsoft program was validated. Earlier
entries were changed without any indication of it, all our records that are
used to audit fissile material are invalid and we may never be able to
straighten out the records.

I am having a
similar experience with Quicken.
<SPAN
class=561503820-17102002>
Can anyone
recommend an alternative to Quicken and Microsoft Money that meets the
following requirements:
<SPAN
class=561503820-17102002>
1. sturdy and
reliable, does not change entries or balances.
<SPAN
class=561503820-17102002>
2. easy to use
interface
<SPAN
class=561503820-17102002>
3. Can read and
transfer Quicken files.
<SPAN
class=561503820-17102002>
4. Preferred if it
can read Turbo Tax files.
<SPAN
class=561503820-17102002>
This sounds like a
difficult set of requirements. After all we've only been writing
commercial software for over 4 decades.
