Installing Finance::quote

[Xavier LAROSE]

I have found the solution :
You have to enter the ISIN code in the second zone called "symbol" of  
the stock editor instead of the zone "code".

My remaining problem is launcher that is incompatible with  
finance::quote.
Do you have any idea to solve that ?

Thank you
Xavier LAROSE
