QIF (Quicken Interchange Format) is a legacy file format that is used to transfer financial data between websites and applications. QIF is being replaced over time by new QXF (Quicken Transfer Format) file format. Unless you need to transfer investment or business data, we recommend that you skip the steps below and use QXF export instead. To learn more, see Export to QXF. Otherwise, here is how to export to QIF:

1. Choose File menu > File Export > QIF file.
2. In the QIF File to Export to field, Quicken displays the preset path of the export file. Select the appropriate option:
   • Enter a name for the export file at the end of the existing path (make sure there is a backslash \ before the file name). Quicken automatically adds the correct file extension.
   • Click Browse to select a different location. Enter a name in the File name field, and then click OK to return to the QIF Export

     • If this doesn't work, try printing the report to an ASCII file from Quicken. When you open the ASCII file in your word processing program, the report columns are separated by spaces.
