Is that 2003 as in year 2003? If so it is probably a PPC only application. If you right click on the application icon in Applications folder does it say anything about being 'PPC' or 'Universal'? If it says PPC it will not run under a later system as support for PPC era applications was dropped in later systems. I believe some people set their computers to run two different operating system versions.
One method is to simply restart from the newer system when you need it. Depending upon how much interfacing you need this can be a nuisance. Another is a more complicated solution and that is to run 10.6 inside a newer OSX version which requires special software and a special version of 10.6. Well I guess a third solution is to do what I do right now and that is have two computers.

This is very important to me since my business is dependent upon Quicken. (Later versions of Quicken for Mac don't have check-writing capabilities which is so important). Many thanks for your help.
I am not sure where you are getting your information, but it is incorrect. I converted my years of work on Quicken Deluxe 2002 to Quicken 2007 back in early 2012, when the Intel version fo Quicken 2007 was released: 1) Quicken 2007 for Mac is available from Intuit for $15 using their online support Chat feature. Ask more than once if they attempt to sell you Quicken 2015 or 2016 for Mac, as these versions are not as robust as Quicken 2007. 2) Quicken 2007 was completely rewritten for use on Intel Mac and the current version, 16.2.3, is El Capitan compatible. 3) Quicken 2007 has a check writing feature: Here is a recent post that I assembled: Quicken 2007 for Mac has been continuously upgraded for OS X compatibility, including Yosemite and now El Capitan. You can obtain Quicken 2007 for Mac for $15 using the Intuit online chat function. Use the chat feature for Quicken for Mac: Quicken 2007 for Lion: Shopping and Buying: Buying Quicken on this page: click on image to enlarge Be sure to use the Online Upgrade feature once you install it; as of this writing it is version 16.2.3 If you are using Quicken 2004 or earlier, you first need to convert the data file to Quicken 2005/6/7 data format while still running on a PPC Mac, or in Snow Leopard on an Intel Mac: Download Quicken 2006 (PPC) from Intuit: Open your data file in Quicken 2006 (PPC) and it will automatically convert it to a Quicken 2005/6/7 data file.
AVOID Quicken 2015 for Mac as it is a misleading upgrade of Quicken Essentials for Mac (and not Quicken 2007), which is generally loathed by all real Quicken for Mac 2007 and previous users! I purchased Quicken 2016 for Mac, when offered a discount by Intuit, and was generally underwhelmed by its capabilities compared to my continued use of Quicken 2007. Apple Footer.
