I'm not sure what you are asking exactly.  There's a mechanism for
price quotes that get tacked on to the end of the QIF file; those
aren't imported just because nobody's gotten around to it yet.  There
are also prices included with transactions involving stocks; those are
what we call "implicit prices", and they will show up in the stock
register but not in the "price editor", which is just for price quotes
not associated with transactions.

Which of these were you asking about? 

Thanks,
