What is a qif file and how do I open a qif file?
Quicken Interchange Format Files are stored in the QIF format and is affixed with the QIF extension, and is used by the Quicken software. These QIF files are generally classified as non-proprietary data files that contain a user's financial accounts in an ASCII text format. They are used to transfer data between different Quicken data files or from a financial institution's website to Quicken software. In 2005, Quicken already discontinued its built-in QIF importing function and was replaced by QFX format. However since QFX require payment of licensing fee and passing quality tests, many financial institutions still offer QIF downloads for convenience. When creating a QIF file, the name must have between three and eight characters long followed by the QIF extension to be recognized by Windows. They may need to be edited in Notepad or Simpletext when moving files from a Quicken for Windows program to a Quicken for Macintosh program.
