Choose the Date for the Quicken Archive File in Quicken
To specify the starting date for new file, either accept the Quicken default entry (January 1 of this year) or change the date by either clicking in the date box and entering a new date or clicking on the calendar symbol to the right of the date box. Use the arrows on either side of the month to navigate forward and back through the calendar. When you get to the month you want, just click on the day of the month you want for your new Quicken data file (the file you will be using every day).
