Question

Why do I receive this error message during the upgrade: Before you can open this company file, you must update your version of QuickBooks 2005 (14.0U R3) to the latest release?

Answer

QuickBooks 2005/06 can only upgrade data files from version 2002 (V9) or later. The data file you are attempting to upgrade is from QuickBooks V8 and needs to be upgraded to QuickBooks 2002 first before being upgraded to QuickBooks 2005/06.
You can find instructions on how to upgrade from QuickBooks V8 in the upgrade notes which came with QuickBooks, they are also available from our website at: https://www.quicken.com.au/BusinessFinance/QuickBooks/upgrade.aspx
