There is an application GnuCash that you can try:

http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/FAQ#Q:_How_do_I_convert_from_CSV.2C_TSV.2C_XLS_.28Excel.29.2C_or_SXC_.28OpenOffice.org_Calc.29_to_a_QIF.3F

You can install it by Synaptic manager. Or find there other similar apps, just type "qif" in the Search field.

yes i wanted this information. i am getting stuck at installing the macros. i mean i am not able to do that. eg. calc2qif1.03 zip file has an .sxc file that opens with OO.org calc and shows a button ' install' i click on it - nothing happens. though the documentation says nothing about the OS, i suspect it is an installer for windows. how can install it in linux? i m using ubuntu/hardy, oo.org 2.4.1.

Can you download it in quickbook format. My bank has this and gnucash imported it ok (back when I used to do all this stuff)

The app should have a way to import XLS. Maybe you can download to a non-proprietary format like a comma seperated text file.

thanks but that did not seem to help. my bank allows dl in .xls format and
the application kmymoney seems to only take qif format. discussing with
kmymoney forum as well. any other solutions please let me know.
thanks again
