I havent heard of .qdf. When I used quicken I saved things as .qif, 
although I never ended up importing them. I just started a new account 
when I moved to all Linux :-) Probably not an option for you though!

I know most will do .qif (Quiken Interchange Format or at least 
Moneydance will. Do you still have access to any Quicken where you could 
read in the .qdf and resave as .qif?
