Set Your Data Free: Extracting Everything from Microsoft Money

If you have ever tried to get your data out of Microsoft Money, you will know how painful it can be. Decades of carefully kept financial history are locked inside a single MNY file, and the tools Microsoft Money gives you to export it have not changed in a very long time.

Maxim Money now has powerful QIF and OFX export, with full filtering. Combined with our native Microsoft Money import, this makes Maxim Money something new: a quick and simple tool for extracting your data from Microsoft Money, ready to use wherever you need it.

The Limits of Microsoft Money's Export

Microsoft Money's built-in export was never designed for moving a complete financial history. It has some serious limitations:

• One account at a time: Each account has to be exported on its own. If you have dozens of accounts, that means dozens of separate exports, and dozens of files to keep track of.
• Missing account types: Many account types, such as Loans, cannot be exported at all.
• Split portfolios: Investment holdings can only be exported separately from the portfolio's cash, leaving you to piece the two back together yourself.

For anyone moving to a new application, or simply wanting a complete, independent copy of their records, these gaps make Microsoft Money's export close to useless.

A Better Route Out

Maxim Money takes a different approach. Instead of relying on Microsoft Money to export your data, Maxim Money reads your MNY file directly. Once it is loaded, you can export it again in whatever shape you need.

The process is simple:

1. Import your Microsoft Money MNY file into Maxim Money.
2. Choose what to export, using Maxim Money's filtering to include exactly the accounts and transactions you want.
3. Export to a single QIF or OFX file.

The result is a clean, multi-account file that covers:

• All account types, including Loans and other accounts that Microsoft Money cannot export.
• Complete portfolios, with investment holdings and portfolio cash together, not split across separate exports.
• Your full history, in one file, instead of a folder full of single-account exports.

Filter Exactly What You Need

Because Maxim Money's exports use the same filtering engine as the rest of the application, you are not limited to "everything or nothing". Export a single tax year for your accountant, just your investment accounts, or the complete picture. You decide what goes into the file.

Your Data, Your Choice

We built Maxim Money on the belief that it is your data. You should be able to keep it, move it and use it however you like, without being trapped by the limits of an application that stopped being updated years ago.

Whether you plan to make Maxim Money your new home, or you just need a reliable way to get everything out of your MNY file, Maxim Money now makes extracting your Microsoft Money data quick and easy.
