Hello,

 

I created a QuickBooks accountant copy .QBX.  The accountant needs the password, but I wasn't prompted to create a password when i exported it.  I had them try our existing password for our current file, but that didn't work either.  any ideas how to get this file open?  Thx

Try opening the sample file on your machine and sending the *.qbx file to your accountant. Did they encounter the same issue?
