Bug #: 31674 Summary: Wine 1.5.6 breaks Quicken 99 import of .qif files; special text character handling problem Product: Wine Version: 1.5.12 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: drt781@yahoo.com Classification: Unclassified
Have been using Quicken 99 for years via Wine. Upgraded from OpenSuse 12.1 to OpenSuse 12.2, and with it Wine 1.5.6 broke import function for .qif files. When I try to import a local .qif file (containing transactions) the operation completes "successfully" but resulting table of data is corrupted. Quicken 99 now, newly, incorrectly interprets .qif files. Uses current date for most transactions (instead of historical), and appears to have mangled, shifted, and/or truncated fields. Where 2d field frequently was blank, 3d field shifted into its place in truncated form. None of the fields displayed correctly. Dollar amounts also incorrect; inaccurate and too large by a factor of x100, as if Q 99 failed to see decimals, but the cents still are not rounded (as would be expected if decimal was just dropped) and the amounts are not familar.
Only the imported data is corrupted; pre-existing data ok. Looks like a possible problem/change in handling special characters in plain text import files, such as following symbols: ' , and . Possibly also following: * and / The ^ character separated transactions; may have been read ok. Don't think that would explain the entire problem, though.
Problem also exists under Wine 1.5.12, not resolved. This will make it much harder to use Q99.
