Updating Prices

[ Q4-Q1 00 Archive ] [ Current Message Board ] [ Archives ] [ Search ]

Hi folks, I hope you can help me with a problem I'm facing when I try to retrieve
prices from the Internet.

First of all, I'm using FundManager Version 4.6.218. Also, I'm living overseas,
but I own US stocks.

The Internet service Provider here in Dubai, (United Arab Emirates) allows
access to all websites only through a Proxy Server (this is mainly to prevent
access to undesirable sites).

Now, this is what happens when I try to retrieve prices from retrieve prices
from Yahoo - Adjusted - Historical.

(1) I click the button for Retrieve and update prices from the Internet.

(2) I get a dialog box asking for the dates, which I input for the previous month.

(3) I get a Dialog Box daying "Com: Setting Connection Options".

(4) Nothing happens for about a minute, until I get another dialog box saying
"Error: 10060 returned from [connect].

(5) Finally, when I click OK, a dialog box says "Timed Out".

That's it -- no retrieving of any prices.

Also, in the "Internet Retrieve Settings" option, even if I put the Proxy
Server Name or IP address, I get an error message saying "Error 11001 returned
from [gethostbyname_prox].

I think the automatic price retrieve function is great in FundManager, and
I'm just very disappointed that I can't make use of this feature.

I need help!!
