: : : I am just trying the product and like it very much but have some questions. : : : I can import prices using AOL download from my portfolio, but I don't know how to import the S&P and DOW. I can't get them into the AOL portfolio format. : : : Also, to delete the companies that came with the download FM, I get into portfolio, but can't find the investment stack so I can use File to Close Top. : : : Thank you.

: samples, just remove the "Samples" folder, located
: in the directory where you installed FM.
: If you are trying to remove them from a portfolio, you can just right mouse click
: on any of their investments, and choose "Close"
: from the popup menu. The investment stack

: Just realized I forgot to answer your first
question... You can do a ticker lookup on AOL
to figure out the symbols for those indices.
I believe the DOW is $INDU on AOL. Also, have you tried the internet retrieve
feature? It makes updating prices much faster/
easier than downloading/importing from AOL. For
more on this feature see: http://www.fundmanagersoftware.com/intrtv.html Thanks,
