How to create a TXF file in Excel or Export XLS to Money?

[RS]

Yes, tax time again. Turbo Tax and other Tax software accepts .txf (tax
exchange files) from MS Money. Excel does not have the option to save
as .TXF files. Is there a way to convert .xlf files to .txf files or to import
an Excel file into money and convert to a .txf file so it can be imported
into TurboTax?

thanks to all

I'm not sure anyone will have all that software to test, but I would be
surprised if Money doesn't have an import routine for Excel, txt or csv
files. Check under the file menu in Money for open... (And look in the
drop-down fro any of these file types) or maybe import... and see what types
are here

In Excel you can go to File>Save as... and look in the drop down here for
the different file types. Be aware that many of the text types .txt, .csv
will only work with Data on one sheet.

Note: I am surprised that your tax software does not accept, if not Excel
file directly, then .txt or .csv files
