Doug,
Thanks. i have got the problem fixed.  actually yahoo finance can provide
the online price to chinese stock(shanghai and shenzheng). i have to select
the yahoo asia, and use xxx.SS(for shanghai stock) and xxx.SZ(for shenzheng
stock) for the symbol name when setting up the security for the online price
property to function.
