: Hi, Mark
: I was trying this morning to update my investments from YAHOO UK as usual. I constantly was receiving the message "Could not update any investments" for no obvious reason. Everything is looking to work properly.
: Any ideas what is going on please?
: Thank you very much for your help.
: Best regards
: Harris Hi Harris,
Thanks for the notice. It seems the format for exchange specific
symbols has changed on this server. We will
release an update to the internet retrieve module.
We hope to release this by the end of this weekend. If you have only a few investments that you
want to update, you can modify those investment
symbols to work with the existing internet
retrieve module. Previously, you could use
an optional exchange specific suffix for your
symbols, such as *L to request a quote from
the London Stock Exchange. The format for
this suffix has changed, so you would change
the symbols to use .L instead of *L. Also, to
work with the existing retrieve module, this
suffix would be required, where it was only
optional before. The new internet retrieve module will allow
you to continue using your existing symbols,
without modification. When the new module comes
out you can read more specifics at: http://www.fundmanagersoftware.com/intrtv.html You can check for the availability of the
new module from within FM by choosing "Help/
FM on the Web/Check for Updates..." from the
menu. If a new module is available you will
be prompted to download it automatically. Thanks,
Mark
