: : : : As for others, I haven't been able to update quotes since August 31st. Neither Stockwatch nor Quicken works. Tks for indicating what can be done... : : : Hi Patrick, : : : The Stockwatch server seems to be working okay when I just tested it. What
: : : ticker symbol are you using. The Quicken - Canada server isn't working
: : : anymore, I've updated that status. It doesn't appear there are freely
: : : available quotes for mutual funds on this server anymore. I'd suggest trying Yahoo. They
: : : are the most reliable. You will need to put the appropriate suffix on your
: : : ticker symbols to use Yahoo. : : : Thanks,

: : Hi Mark, thanks for the rapid follow-up.
: : Example of symbols I've been using is SPP*INC with SWatch Canada, PCA*INC with Quicken Canada. Both are not wokring. I've tried PCA*INC.TO with Yahoo... but the problem here might be the server, their is none specific for Canada.
: : Thanks again for looking into that. : Hi Patrick, : I just tested SPP*INC with the Canada Stockwatch server, and it retrieved
: properly. How are you verifying if your quotes get updated? Please look
: under "Edit / All Data..." with the "Prices" data type selected. One common
: confusion is if you're looking at your ending graph date, and the ending date
: is not "floating". If this is the case, see "View / Dates..." to fix that. : Thanks,
: Mark

: Your right Mark, this is why I didn't realise it was working. I'll remember that for the next time (if ever..) Thanks again.
Cheers.
