I don't know if you are thinking of the anonymize feature within KMM, but that
works from the internal structures and accounts within a KMM loaded file to
produce an anonymized file.  That is not the case here, as the problem you see
occurs during the actual file load.  Taking an anonymized file in this case
would show only the import result, rather than the original QIF file.

 A QIF file is just a simple text file in a very simple structure.  An
anonymized version would have to be the result of manual editing.  I suspect
your file is not of a trivial size, and it may be that it would involve quite a
bit of work to manually edit everything.

So, if you are able to identify the individual transaction, you could perhaps
disguise that and send it, to me direct if you prefer, and I'll see if I am
able to produce a file showing the problem.  Every transaction will be enclosed
 in "^" characters.  Include these too, so I know I have the whole transaction.

Really, in this case, it sounds as though Quicken have stepped outside their
published file format, but that may not be the case.  So, we'll see what can be
done.

Do you see any pattern to these?  Can you produce examples?
