The MRD format is a legacy format proprietary to the Pundit CMM application. It is supported mainly to allow users of the application to convert old files to QIF format.
QIF version 1.9.1 was a pre-release version of QIF 2.0. It is extremely close to the official QIF 2.0 release, and could be easily updated to 2.0 if required.
