My recollection is that my Quicken Deluxe 2002 opened my old Quicken 2000 data files. Then the Q2002 data file can be opened and converted further in Quicken 2006 (PPC) or Quicken 2007 (either PPC or Intel).


This statement misses the point and give an incorrect impression:

can't open Quicken 2000 files in classic mode on new MacBook Pro version 10.6.7

While there is no Classic Mode on a MacBook Pro (running any version of OS X) and hence you cannot run the Classic application Quicken 2000, you can run more modern versions of Quicken on a Snow Leopard MacBook Pro that will indeed open a Quicken 2000 data file and update its data structure, as noted earlier in this post.
