: Hello. I have been using the trial version for about two months, on and off. I have been away for about 3 weeks, and did not realize that two particular quotes are no longer being downloaded.

: I receive no error when updating, global or the specific stock. All other stocks work fine.

: The two I am tracking are NYMEX Oil and Gas futures, via Yahoo. Yahoo stocks all work fine, but these two simply do nothing. It used to work fine.

: Current symbol (changes monthly)
: Oil = CLU07.NYM
: Gas = NGU07.NYM

: I know the symbol is correct, as Yahoo web shows it proper:
: http://finance.yahoo.com/futures?t=energy

: I have also checked for updates to FM, and there are none for me.

: So far a good program, missing some important features, but I will give it the rest of the trial to decide.

: Baffled!
: Dave

Hi Dave,

I took a look at CLU07.NYM. If you look this up on Yahoo, it has a last trade date of August 10. I retrieved this in Fund Manager, and it updated correctly, for $71.68 on August 10th. See:

http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=CLU07.NYM

I'm not sure why the last trade date was August 10, but this is what Yahoo is reporting, and that is what FM will retrieve.

If you have any feedback on important missing features you'd like to see added, please let me know.

Thanks,
Mark
