Convert Bank Data - CSV to QIF

If you download bank transactions into any program or online service, you know that you have to use specific file types.  What if your bank doesn't give you what you need?

Geeky Chick describes her struggle to convert CSV to QIF ("when your bank is too lazy or stingy to do it for you").  By using an Excel add-in, you can get your data into the right format.

With all the bank failures, mergers, and changes going on, you may find this information handy.  Banks sometimes transition your account to a new system, and you may have to adapt.  You can also use conversion tools to slice and dice data in ways that your software doesn't allow.

I have not used the product she mentions.  Take precautions before downloading, installing, and working with sensitive banking information.  Make backups of your existing data, and do some homework to make sure the software does not contain anything that will harm your computer or steal your information.
