: : Mark,

: : I use the Yahoo Historical quote server to update my Fund Manager
: : portfolios. Everything worked fine through July 30. Since August
: : 1st I have been unable to get any updates of the Index's... such as the
: : DJIA, COMP, SPX or RUT. Also none of my mutual funds are updating. All
: : my stocks updated fine for August 2nd.

: : Any ideas...?

: : Your help is greatly appreciated,

: Hi Larry,
: I'm not sure how quickly this historical database gets updated.
: You might want to go with a strategy of using the historical server
: to get your data at first, and then use the Yahoo server on a daily
: basis to get the daily updates. If you miss a few quotes, then go
: back to the historical server to get those. You can check with your
: browser by going to Yahoo, and on one of the graph quotes, click the
: link to the "Tables", which is where FM is getting the historical data.

: Thanks,
: Mark

Mark,

You're right. The Historical Quote servers can be a day or two behind
with updating. Thanks for your advice and a great product.

Larry
