QFX to OFX Converter
A QFX is an OFX with Intuit's extensions. Some importers — GnuCash and a number of banking tools among them — want plain OFX and will not take a file carrying those tags. This removes them and leaves everything else alone.
Take Intuit's tags off, for software that refuses a file carrying them.
The tags Quicken needs and others reject
<INTU.BID> is what makes a QFX a QFX. Taking it out is precisely what a strict OFX reader is asking for.
Nothing else touched
Every transaction crosses unchanged. This is a change of wrapper, not of content.
Both dialects read
Whether your QFX is the older SGML form or the newer XML one, both are read — and most files in the wild are the older one, which no XML parser will open.
