Remove the password on your Quicken file, if any. Then do Validate
in Quicken. I think that is File->Validate.
Change all custom types to standard Quicken types. Any custom type
will be converted to type Mutual Fund by Money.
Rick Hess posted that in Quicken you can select File->Copy, and let
it make a copy of your file. This routine will, among other
things, defragment your file. Then convert the copy.
Consider having a minimum of other things running when you do
the conversion in Money.
