Yes....

At one time I kept three sets of books....   a Corporation, a sole-ownership  
and my personal checking account.

There is the option within the program to switch files but you can also use 
the filename on the command line argument when starting up MD.

But as far as I know, there is no ability within the program to,  
say,   'strip out'  old transactions from your current file and move them to 
your archive/older file.

Don't really know what you are looking for in that regard.
