: : Please check to make sure you have version 231 of the DLL under "Help/About...".
: : I just did a test retrieve with "MLB", and it worked properly.
: : If you really do have 231, then can you tell us if it ever works?
: : Does it depend what time of day you try and retrieve? : : Thanks,

: : : Hi Mark, : MLB has never worked for me.
: It follows two unlisted companies in the portfolio. They have no ASX codes.
: Could that have any bearing?
: CPA last worked on 11/8/2000. It does not follow any unlisted stocks. : Thanks for your interest.
: Roger Hi Mark,
I have discovered a typing error in my version of MLB it was typed ML;B In the font Fund Manager uses it was not apparent. I noticed it in the Investment Properties > Other screen which uses a different font. Sorry about that. This has had the effect of fixing up most of the errors although I still have problems with the Suncorp Metway stocks which are:
SMEHB and SMPG. I have tried to get these directly from the ASX and they come up OK.
I have tried setting up a new portfolio with just these stocks in it and it fails.
Both of these used to work until 11/8/00. Regards
Roger
