Fw: Canadian Mutual Fund Quotes

[Doug Brown]

   Try getting my patch at:
   [1]http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1938792&gro
   up_id=4232&atid=304232
   which I use to get Canadian mutual fund data from Stockhouse. I think
   "Canada Mutual" will pull from there, otherwise specify Stockhouse as
   your source (I'm not at my home computer so can't give you the exact
   source name).
   Doug.

Hello Dave,

I hope I am not pushing my luck, but I am wondering if you have had a chance to
 look at this.

Thanks for your help,
Cory

Thanks, Dave. One of my funds is AIS509. I used to be able to
download the prices with Finance::Quote using "Canada Mutual" (in the
drop-down selector next to "type of quote source: Multiple") in the
"Edit Security" window.

Thanks again,
Cory

My guess is that the particular patch discussed will not solve your
problem. However, there might be another one that deals with
Canadian sources.

Please give me an example fund (name and ticker symbol), and I'll
see what I can come up with.

I'm away from my mac until Sunday, so I won't be able to test
anything until then. But I can look through the finance-quote
patches before then.

Dave

Hello Dave,

I am running GnuCash 2.2.5 on Mac OS 10.4.11 on an Intel MacBook. I
installed GnuCash using Fink.

I have been having trouble getting updated quotes for my Canadian
mutual funds since 3/28/08. I searched the archives and found an
email you sent April 7: [8]http://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-
user/2008-April/024673.html

In this email, you recommended installing a Finance::Quote patch to
solve a similar problem with UK funds. Do you know whether installing
this patch would restore my ability to download Canadian fund prices?
If so, can you provide the command-line commands I would need to
enter to install the patch?

Thanks,
Cory
