[Kmymoney] Cross Platform File Use

Thu Nov 22 20:04:52 UTC 2012

Hello,

Just my piece of knowledge on this topic,

I am using exactly the same file from KMM installed on Windows 7 and on KMM
installed on a linux virtual machine (Ubuntu-latest). (depends where I am
when needing to enter a data.)

And I had neven any issue. The file is in a common directory.

Of course, I am using exactly the same version of KMM in both case.

Regards, VdL

I maintain my KMyMoney file on a Kubuntu machine and I just copy the file
over to my Windows PC and have no problems there.

The only thing you have to do is setup the KMyMoney exactly the same on both
PC's, for example if you want Closed Accounts to not show up then you set
that option on each machine.

Subject: [Kmymoney] Cross Platform File Use

I am currently going through a learning curve with Xubuntu, which is where I
discovered KMyMoney.  It's an excellent program, by the way.  I am
considering installing this on my Windows PC, but at a later time, I may
convert that PC to a Linux OS.
If installed in Windows, can I back up the KMyMoney file to my Xubuntu
laptop, and be able to access the file to make changes within Xubuntu? If
this is possible, then it will hopefully make for a smooth transition if I
decide to convert my PC.

I'm guessing an encryption key will play a part in this cross platform
transition, but I really want to be sure before wasting my time with a
windows installation.

Thanks for your help,

Mark Bray
