Hi,

Thanks for the reply, but I can only follow this until #6 - SAVE.....I added some info to the saved name on the external hard drive I saved everything on yesterday at my office, clicked next, and then got a pop up box that says "The company file that you are trying to open was created with a newer version of Quickbooks. Please upgrade your copy of Quickbooks."

This is where I am stumped. My office computer is set for atuomatic updates, so I assume that is the newest version. I just finally figured out how to download the actual Quickbooks program into my laptop this morning, so shouldn't it be an even newer version?

When I was first tyring this, I did go to Help and had updates installed from what ever I downloaded to, I  guess, the current version of the program. There was a number of updates that were installed today.

Totally confused!!

Thanks!
