Updating bond prices

Does anyone have suggestions for retrieving bond prices for periodic updates into FM? Here I mean mostly treasury notes. A question that's even more ambitious, is there a source for prices of brokerage CDs? For the CDs I would guess that the prices are only set by the trading desk of the brokerage.

I suspect that the answer to this question is to use whatever information one has and input it manually. But it never hurts to ask.

I did notice that ofxretr.txt received from a call to Fidelity for transactions also returns such prices for all positions in the account. This invites a question: could prices be automatically updated by the retrieve transaction command? It does not seem to be an option to specify Fidelity as a source for price updates in FM otherwise.

Thanks.
