: Hi Enrico,
: If you look up just the single quote for one one of these, you do see the current quote with your browser. For example:
: http://it.finance.yahoo.com/q?s=IFGSNPA.MI
: If you look right below the main table, there is a link titled:
: "Scarica i dati"
: and it is a hyperlink to:
: http://it.old.finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=IFGSNPA.MI&f=sl1d1t1c1ohgv&e=.csv
: This .csv link is where FM goes to get the quotes. For some reason, this .csv link is reporting "N/A" for some of these quotes. I'm not sure why, or when this started happening. Hopefully it is temporary, and Yahoo Italy will correct the data being downloaded in csv format. We don't have any special contacts at Yahoo. You might want to send them a note, and point out this problem, maybe they will fix it faster.
: Thanks,
: Mark

Hi Mark,
today the problem is getting harder: at the following link I see the prices (Excel in IE):

http://it.old.finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=AL.MI+G.MI+AUTO.MI+PMI.MI+BPVN.MI+CE.MI+ISP.MI+UC.MI+BUL.MI+CAP.MI+ENEL.MI+ENI.MI+F.MI+FNC.MI+ES.MI+MS.MI+PC.MI+STM.MI+TIT.MI+TITR.MI+TME.MI+FWB.MI+TIS.MI+FXC.MI+IJPN.MI+EUE.MI+IUSA.MI+IPRP.MI+TAG09.MI+TMG11.MI+%5EMIBTEL+%5ESPMIB+EURUSD=X&f=snl1d1t1c1ohgv&e=.csv

but they don't get updated in FM: why? what's the problem now?
I think that Yahoo (Italy or US, I don't know) has changed something, maybe in the formatting of some field (the date?).
Thanks if you can help me.
Enrico
