: Hi Mark,

: I experienced problems retrieving Canadian Mutual Fund tickers from Canada Stockwatch on Friday, Feb 25th. Reading some of the posts here I realized that you no longer provide updates to the retrieve module I was using for an older version of FM. I have no problem with that as I've used FM for years and always benefited from the fact that you kept us current with changes to the retrieve module.

: I've now updated to version 7.1.362 and I have the most current retrieve module. Does the current retrieve module work with Canada Stockwatch?? I am still not able to retrieve the closing values for Canadian Mutuals on Canada Stockwatch for 2/25/05. 'Advice for Investors' is an alternative but unfortunately they show todays date for the last quote even if the value is 3 days old. This makes it difficult to determine if you're looking at the most recent (todays) data or old information. With Stockwatch the date changed to reflect the date of the last updated information.

: In short - is the latest retrieve module working with Canada Stockwatch or is Stockwatch just not providing current data as of the close on 2/25/05?

: Cheers,

Hi Derek,

To the best of my knowledge 362 is retrieving properly from Canada Stockwatch.
I just tested it now with my test portfolio, and it seemed to update properly.
If you go to their web site with your browser, do you see the quotes you
need okay? If so, and Fund Manager isn't retrieving them, can you give me
an example ticker that you can view properly with your browser, but Fund
Manager isn't updating?

Thanks,
Mark
