Hi,
 
This is by first posting so please excuse any errors.
 
I have been using Gnucash for sometime and lkie it. My wife has been using
MS Money for many years and has had the occassional problem. I have had some
difficulties in resolving these. As she is self employed her accounts are
very important. So she has thought about using Gnucash. 
 
We have just download it and laod her MSMoney files into it. 
 
To do this I used the following stages:-
 
1. Export her MSMoney file as a Loose Quicken file to the same loaction as
her MSMoney files (A folder on a NAS drive)
2. Started Gnucash and tried to locate the Quicken file.
 
This is where we hit problem Gnucash would not 'find' the NAS drive.
 
I then copied the Quicken file and pasted it to a folder on the C drive and
used this to load into Gnucash. This seemed to work (we did not fully check
it) as my wife wanted to be sure she could save it on the NAS drive, as she
has a couple of laptops depending on her working day. We could not save to
the NAS drive as Gnucash could not 'see' it. So for the moment she will stay
with MSMoney.
 
Please can anyone help - it would make my life a lot easier not having to
rescue her accounts again..
 
 
Thanks
