Problem importing ms money 2002 data

Hello,

I need some help to import my ms money 2002 data in GNUCash 1.8.3.

In ms money I exported all my accounts in QIF format, and then in GNUCash I do file -> import -> import QIF.

I load the 4 QIF files, 3 of them are really fast (only a few operations on these accounts) and the QIF for the main account takes a few seconds and is the only one for which i see the progress window, so the loading seems effective.

When i have all the 4 QIF file in the list, I click "next" and the windows "Match QIF accounts with GNUCash accounts" appears.

The problem is that the list in this windows is supposed to display the accounts I loaded, but it's empty.

If i continue clicking "next", the windows "Match QIF categories with GNUCash account" appears, and the list is also empty, despite the fact that a lot of different categories are used in the QIF files.

I can continue clicking next and seeing empty lists, and finally i'm back in the main GNUCash window, without any change from the beginning.

My first thought was that the QIF where defective, the biggest is only 50KB and should contain about 3 years of operations, but when i look in the file it seems ok, it has the form :

D07/09'2000
CX
MRadio dentaire
T-22.87
N8777175
PDr L'Honnen
LSanté:Dentiste
^

I don't know the QIF specs but i think it's ok, GNUCash would surely report if it was incorrectly formated or something.

Any idea ?

Thanks in advance.
