Hi Richard,

I typed in BAYG.F on the front page, and got a basic quote, that shows
the symbol. For example, see:

http://de.finance.yahoo.com/q?d=v1&s=bayg.f&m=a

Thanks,
Mark

: Mark,

: If I use the symbol 575200.F for Bayer it seems to work. Where did you find that symbol on Yahoo? All I could find was "BAYG.F".

: : Hi Richard,

: : Pardon my ignorance, I didn't realize Frankfurt was part of the Yahoo - Germany
: : server... :( I just went and looked it, up, and they appear to use the symbol:

: : 575200.F

: : Which I put into an FM investment, and retrieved properly from Yahoo - Germany.

: : Thanks,

: : : Mark,

: : : You have the example in my query. I'm trying to get Bayer. The symbol on the Franfort exchange is as I said bayg.f

: : : Yes I can see the values in my browser.

: : : Richard

: : : : : Mark,

: : : : : I can't seem to pick up any values off the German exchanges using Yahoo.

: : : : : I can get Bayer off of the Amsterdam exchange with the symbol "bayg.as".

: : : : : If I try it off of the Frankfurt exchange using "bayg.f", it doesn't work. I've tried other stocks off of the Frankurt exchange also; nothing seems to work.

: : : : : My dll's are upto date, am using 6.2.326

: : : : : Help.

: : : : : Richard

: : : : Hi Richard,

: : : : Can you give me an example of one ticker that you're trying to retrieve
: : : : from Yahoo - Germany? Can you get this quote using your browser, but not
: : : : with FM? I would start by going to the quote server with your browser, and
: : : : figuring out what symbols to use, and making sure you can retrieve the
: : : : quotes with your browser. If you can get it with your browser, then you
: : : : should also be able to get it with FM.

: : : : For links to all the servers see:
