Many thanks to David and Robert. After mucking about for an hour or so,
which included upgrading perl, I opened a CPAN shell and ran 'install
Finance::Quote'. It picked up the newest 1.08 version(confirmed with
David's find command). At some point I must have trampled the module
somehow, as it had worked previously. Oh well. Learned another new thing
or two. Bill
