#Moneydance import csv how to#
Wait, they don't have any information telling me how to use Subversion.
I was a bit worried about the version of Subversion that my mac came with (1.6.17 according to svn –version) and a mismatch there, but let's give it a go.
#Moneydance import csv install#
I was able to install that without any trouble. Now, how do I hook Eclipse up with Subversion? It looks like there are two solutions, the more popular of which is Subclicpse. I figure I'll open up Eclipse and use that to make the local change and import my text file. It looks like Google has a SVN repository for the project. Unfortunately, the extension does not import as UTF-8 and since it does not give an option for selecting the encoding I assume that they just take the platform default or something.Ī quick check of the code shows that indeed, they use a Java FileReader (who thought it was a good idea to have the filereader open text files in the platform default encoding? It is never a good idea to assume a default and not allow programmers a way to change it.) So to fix it, you simply need to use a FileInputStream and an InputStreamReader with the encoding set. I know the files my bank sends are in Shift-JIS, but I changed the format to UTF-8 in Emacs since UTF-8 is the format that all text files should be saved in. That is a clear indication that the encoding on the file was set wrong. The text didn't show up as proper Japanese, it was more like goobledegook. The problem is that the imported transactions from the bank were garbled. It has support for formats from some banks, and then has a "custom reader" format that you can use to set up the fields that your bank sends. There is a beta CSV import extension for Moneydance though, so I tried that out. But now they are in CSV format, which isn't natively supported That is kind of annoying because I like to download my transactions from the bank and jam them into Moneydance. Recently Tokyo Mitsubishi UFJ bank decided to drop support for downloading transactions in Microsoft Money format and switched to a CSV format. I use Moneydance to track my personal finances.
