Thread: QUICKEN PREMIER 2005

BUMP

BUMP AGAIN.

C'mon... someone on here has to have Quicken!

SeeEEEeeee... that's what you get for ignoring my ramblings...I've used it forever and use Prem H&B 2005 atm.

You could try "Seeeeeaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrch", too.

I've done it for you:

Follow the directions; it is what I use to update my TSP share prices in Quicken semi-automatically.

Thanx!:^

Rod,

I've used Quicken Deluxe (about the same thing as far as investing part of the program) for 10 years, and I too will search as well and would like to know how to integrate TSP and Quicken as well. I've never tried to do this and have just been manually typing in the prices. Way too time consuming.

GOOD G-D MAN!!

Don't you all know this übergeek is ALL ABOUT convenience and automation and anything that provides me max info with more goof-off time!?

Yes, let me know if you have problems/need clarificationwith the Quicken dealie. Ima pretty up the web site one O these days. (I would add it to Tom's site, but dunno if putting another task onto his SQL server would be a good idea. O course, DUH! we don't have to use HIS, he can use mine! DurrRRRrrrrr...hey Tom, I'll throw you some code soon.)

I just got back into a collectible card game that I haven't played in 8 years and it's pretty time consuming....putting my new acquisitions into a database now (for max info now and max playtime later).

K, after you get your account set up in Quicken, you should have individual securities setup called TSP_XX, where _ is the letter of the fund (C/S/I/F/G).

Then you download share prices from this link. http://www.techalchemy.net/TSP/tsp.php

While on the investments screen, click File | Import |Import Prices.



There is an intermittent bug...the price update gets wonky once in a while (you will see +30% gain in one day); once I fix that, there will be a link to it on TSPtalk.


Any questions? Does everybody know how to do this who wants to do it?

Also, does the import work with Micro$oft Money?

Hi, I'm using Quicken H&B Premier 2004. I have followed your directions, best I can tell, to import prices into the security. I created securities using the TSP_XX format. I saved from your website in a notepad file named 'TSP Price History.txt', using the dates for 1/3 to 1/28/05. Just this year.

Anyway, I try to import the file and it says 'No valid prices to import'.

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong or what to try next. Can you help me please?

I do appreciate your efforts and can't believe TSP won't modernize for us.

Rolo, thanks, but still no luck. Same problem regardless of downloading and importing 1 date, 5 dates, or entire history. Same error message. Also, do you know what the default folder is that Quicken looks for this file in? Getting old having to paste and copy the entire path as it is quite long!

Thanks again for your efforts, I am very excited at the prospect of getting this up and running!

Just a thought: Do you think it matters in which order I created the securities? I created them in this order: C, G, F, S, I, using the TSP_XX format.
