: Mark, Great program! Just downloaded recently and spent the weekend filling in
: mutual fund info going back to 1994! Unfortunately, I made the newbie mistake of
: using "adjusted historical" for my price retreival. I was wondering why my statement
: prices weren't jiving with the historical prices. Found the answer at your 2/10/00
: advice to Jeff Rovner. My questions are 1)will this greatly flaw my yield and performance
: reports; as funds go, there were distributions only and no splits, 2)if I re-retreive,
: will this automatically re-record over the adjusted prices. I'm a monthly "dollar-cost-averager"
: so you can appreciate why I wouldn't want to re-enter any more data than I already
: have. OCD comes in handy from time to time! Thanks, Mark Hi Mark,
You can safely just re-retrieve historical prices from the
"Yahoo (Historical)" server. This will just update your prices with
the un-adjusted (correct) prices. Prices and transactions are
independent, so this is perfectly safe. Thanks,
Mark
