Import QIF from Quicken 2000 in Gnu Cash Impossible !

[Charles Day]

I will explain in English and make a poor attempt at French (and without
accents):

I'm not sure why, but the GnuCash QIF importer doesn't accept categories
that contain a '/' character. If you replace '\' with a space everywhere in
your file, it will work.

Je ne suis pas sur pourquoi, mais GnuCash n'accepte pas les categories QIF
qui utilisent '\'. Si vouz remplacez '\' avec une espace ' ', il marche.
