: I'm sure you gone over this before but I can't find it on the Board or in Help.
: Yahoo Hist report some indexes (e.g. ^TNX [10 year bond) as x.xx
: Yahoo (used for auto quote) reports them as xx.xx

: How do I convert the xx.xx to x.xx automatically??

: Thanx

Hi Bob,

I believe this is an error with Yahoo's quotes for this symbol.
You can try e-mailing them about it, and they may fix them.

If you'd like to work around the problem, you can use FM's price scaling
feature under "File/File Operations/Scale Prices...", and multiply by
10 or 0.1, whichever way you need to go. Make sure you only have open
the investments that you want to scale, as this command works on any
investments you have open at the time.

Thanks,
Mark
