Hi all,

soory to bother you with this simple questions: how to setup the online quotes?

I try to get quotes online from Yahoo Europe for german stocks, e.g. BASF.

First I run the installation via CPAN for finance:quote. I setup my stock account for BASF as:

Account Name: BASF
Description: BASF Stammaktien
Currency: EUR
Security: BASF (BASF)

get online quotes from Yahoo Europe, local time

The security is set in the commodity editor to
Fullanme: BASF
Abbreviation BASF
Type: EUREX
CUSIP or other code: 515100.FE


Actually, I varied either Abbreviation or CUSIP to
515100, 515100.DE, 515100.FX, BASF, BASF.DE, BASF.FX, BAS.DE, BAS.FX

nothing worked out, the error is: Unable to retrieve quotes for this item: EUREX:BASF (which is the abbreviation, but as said above, it didn't work with othersettings.

Thanks for the help,
Klaus
