Support for Migration from Home Accountz to MyNetWorth and iNetWorth

MyNetWorth and its iOS cousin, iNetWorth were inspired by my (happy) experience as a user of Home Accountz for nearly a decade. As a result MyNetWorth and iNetWorth share many features and capabilities with Home Accountz. Now that Home Accountz is no longer commercially available or supported, I am hoping to encourage current Home Accountz users to migrate to MyNetWorth. Users who ran Home Accountz under MS Windows, who lack access to an iMac, Mac Mini, Mac Studio or MacBook but do have access to an iPhone or iPad, can migrate to iNetWorth and I am hoping to encourage them too.

I have developed a pair of apps, AccountzConvert for macOS and iAccountzConvert for iOS, which allow Home Accountz users, once they have exported selected Home Account data to a pair of Comma Separated Variable (CSV) files, to convert and combine the data in these two files into a single .mnydata file package that is compatible with both MyNetWorth and iNetWorth. They can then open this file in MyNetWorth or iNetWorth to complete their migration process quickly and easily.

AccountzConvert and the Mac Catalyst version of iAccountzConvert have been published on the Mac App Store. iAccountzConvert has been published on the App Store. The AccountzConvert User Guide is here and the iAccountzConvert User Guide is here.

To allow prospective purchasers of MyNetWorth, who currently use Home Accountz, to open their converted Home Accountz datafile in MyNetWorth Preview, I have incorporated all of the MyNetWorth file capabilities (bar archiving) into MyNetWorth Preview. iNetWorthPreview has always had the full file access capabilities of iNetWorth (except, of course, for archiving).

If you are a user of Home Accountz on Microsoft Windows, please note that I ported MyNetWorth to Windows in April 2022. I also ported AccountzConvert to Windows. Please see this post for more details.
