Then how did Microsoft do it in their Microsoft Office Small Business
Tools?  They are able to pull data from Quickbooks and put it into an 
Access Database.

biz.comp.accounting co-moderator mike block note:

Sorry for the misunderstanding. It depends what you mean by a 
Software Development Kit. There has long been a QB to Access
program from datablox. Now there also is Data Flow Manager,
the Microsoft program and others. My perhaps limited definition
of an SDK related to documentation intended to facilitate bi-
directional data transfers of single records or an entire file. I think
datablox and Microsoft are QB to Access, not the reverse, of the
full file only. I think Data Flow Manager has llimited (because QB
IIF does not have data types like payroll checks) bidirectional 
capability of the full file only. None are what I would call a SDK.
