Ed and Frank:
It has been more years than I care to remember since I used Quickbooks, But 
they must have a QIF export module. Using Kmymoney2 and it QIF import module 
this should be an easy task. If you have any problems you will find the 
developer's are real helpful in helping you correct any QIF import problems. 
I have been using Kmymoney2 now for close to two years. They are in the 
processe of adding investments and budgeting/reports to the product. They are 
starting to pick up some translators so the available lanuguages are 
increasing and it is rapidly reaching a 1.0 release.
