: Hi Mark,

: I'm presently using FM 6.8 but looking to up grade to FM 7. One of the upgraded feature reads as follows:

: >Internet retrieve log location is based on executable location, rather than installed directory from registry.

: I'm not clear on the benefits of this feature. In the past I setup a new user profile on my Win95 computer but discovered that I was unable to retrieve prices from the internet. Does this new feature affect this problem or would I still have to re-install FM in the new user profile?

: If so, would my old and new user profile both be enabled to retrieve prices?

: Regards,
: Clive

Hi Clive,

This really isn't a very significant change. It simply made the creation of the retrieve log more robust. For example, if you just moved your Fund Manager folder manually it would break the internet retrieve in the older versions. This changed helped fix that.

Yes, both users should be able to retrieve prices.

Thanks,
Mark
