: How can the automatic retrieval be set up for once a day at a specified time?

Hi Gary,

You can do this a couple of ways...

1) Leave FM running, and set the automatic retrieve frequency to 1440 minutes.

2) Set up a scheduled task in Windows.
(Start/Programs/Accessories/System Tools/Scheduled Tasks)
Use Fund Manager's command line arguments to have it retrieve prices at
a certain time of day. This method is better, as you can use it to update
multiple portfolios if you'd like. Search the online help for "command line
arguments". An example command line would be:

"C:\Program Files\Fund Manager\fm.exe "C:\Data\FINANCE\MY_DATA\all.mm4" /I /Q

Thanks,
Mark
