Quickbooks to GnuCASH

[Tony Nelson]

Thanks Charles.

I replaced the existing file, so I now presumably have the latest and
greatest.  

But it appears that this only works with Quicken and not Quickbooks
files, can you confirm?  My QuickBooks2008 file has a .qbw extension.

Is there any automated way to convert this type of file or am I out of
luck?

Thanks!
