This means that the QIF import code doesn't know about the 401(k)
Quicken account type. That's OK, because gnucash doesn't either, and
the default substitution is what I would have suggested anyway.
Generally a 401(k) account is going to be very similar to a brokerage
clearing account, which I suggest should be of type BANK in gnucash.
I will send a patch to Dave that will add the new Q2k types to the
list of recognized QIF account types, but that will really just
suppress the warning message; the gnucash account type will be the
same.
Thanks,
