Datasheet

If you haven’t used Quicken before, Quicken asks whether it’s okay to use
the default location for the data file (you should agree to this), and then it
automatically sets up a data file for you (you don’t need to worry about it).
Quicken next prompts you to register. (You might as well do this. The regis-
tration takes only a few minutes. All you do, in a nutshell, is provide your
name and address, a bit of information about how you use Quicken, and your
e-mail address.)
After the data file is set up, Quicken starts the Express Setup (see Figure 1-3).
The Express Setup process walks you through the steps for setting up
Quicken. (You can find out much more on this process in the next section.)
