: : Mark, I thought this was resolved but I continue to have this problem, last night after updated everything was fine, today I opened the portfolio and there we go again, MERFX share today is $14.67? (correct price is $ 15.62 and so was entered during last nite download).This is so weird, like overnite a gremlin corrects the price.
: : Anyways, if you will be busy for the holiday is fine I can wait, when you have the time.
: : Hapy New Year
: : David
: : PS: I have a file showing the prices screen today'a date of 12/30/06 14.67 with a red line on the left if you like to see it.

: Hi David,

: I just retrieved MERFX using the latest quote module (373) and the "Yahoo" quote server. FM retrieved a price of $15.62 for the date of 12/29/2006, which is what is displayed on Yahoo's web site if you look at it with a browser.

: What quote server are you using? To find this out, look at the Investment Properties... / Internet Retrieve dialog. If it is set to use the "", then check under "Options / Internet Settings..." to see what default quote server you're using.

: What quote module are you using? See "Help / About...".

: Please also double check the recorded symbol under "Investment Properties... / General".

: If you retrieve the prices again now, and then look under the Data Register with the "Prices" data type, what price do you have recorded on 12/29/06?

: You can also look at the time/date stamp on your MERFX investment file, to see when it was last modified. Maybe you're using some command line argument with the Windows Task Scheduler to automate a price retrieve from some other server? Just guessing here...

: Thanks,
: Mark

Hi Mark, thank you for taking the time, really,the strange thing is I HAVE CHANGE NOTHING,as far as settings is concern, the Internet Retrieve is set like all others symbols to "Default Server".
What I find strange is that on Data Register "Prices" I have 15.62 for 12/29/0 BUT I also have an entry for 12/30/06 for 14.67 and I believe this is the problem like after the daily update all is fine but the next day, WITHOUT any internet conection it decides to update the price to a value that is not related?
Again, I did not make any changes to settings and in fact in retroespect I think this has been going on for quite a while because many times checking day later will see different totals but did not apid attention.
Again, why jsut this only symbol?
