Reconcile all bank accounts before doing this.

Change the system date to 12/31/99 so you do not lose
accounts or list items that were not used in 2000, but
were used in 1999. Then enter Windows, Closeall,
File, Utilities, Rebuild.

Enter 12/31/97 (not 1/1/98).

Check the boxes to delete all unused list accounts
and list items.
