Answer:	To move and convert your data: Back up your Quicken data on the old computer to floppy disk(s) or some other portable storage media. Take the disks to the computer where the later version of Quicken is installed, and insert the first disk in the drive. Start Quicken. From the File menu, choose Restore or Restore Backup File, depending on which version of the Quicken program you are currently using. Choose the drive and filename if necessary. Quicken displays a message saying your files are about to be converted. Click Yes to continue, and the files will be converted to a format for the new Quicken version.
