[GNC] OFX connect/AQbanking problem.

[D.]

Elmar,

The AQbanking connection is a commercially-maintained black box protocol that was previously reverse engineered by the diligent volunteer maintainer of the AQbanking package. The fact that it failed when the commercial vendor altered the innards inside the box is not surprising. The ongoing challenges of figuring out the workarounds demonstrates the skill with which that commercial vendor has created their new system. There have been numerous discussions on these lists regarding different attempts. That they haven't worked for you is lamentable, to be sure, but not a reason to blame the group for not providing you a solution. 

David T.

Alas, it seems as if the assembled knowledge base cannot solve this.  It 
bothers me that this used to work fine in the older version, but now 
fails, despite having the bank in the database.  No help at all?  The 
bank will not "expose" its OFX files for download - only CSV, and that's 
a royal pain. - Elmar
