: I update my portfolio price from internet every week. Last one was 12/24/98. Since then when I update the graph end date does not match the update date. On the message board, I saw your response to the same question asked before. This is what I did:
: View/dates/revert to full history for all investments
: file/save portfolio
: file/exit
: started fund manager, opened portfolio & hit INT icon on FM to update price.

: No luck. Still the end date on the graph was 12/24/98. Also when I checked prices after update using the View/Edit Data icon on FM, the last price was still for 12/24/98.

: I have never had this problem before. Would you please explain step by step what to do. I have'nt updated my portfolio since the last two weeks.

: Thanks,

Ram,
Since your last price is also for 12/24/98,
this isn't a problem with your date range
settings. Your prices are not being updated
for some reason. You can turn on "Options/
Confirmation Notices" before a retrieve. It will
then tell you how many prices were updated.
If none are being updated check the version
of FM you are using. The latest can be downloaded
from our web site. The latest retrieve module is
115. This can be updated with "Help/FM on the
Web/Quote Server Status Check...". If you have
an older version you will be prompted to
download the newer version.
If you are updating all but one or two
investments I'd recommend going to the server's
site with your browser and making sure they
still offer the quotes you are requesting. The
list of servers and their URLs are at:

Thanks,
