I noticed the "never EVER select "template" " below and now am worried.
During my initial setup for stocks etc. I setup one using the "template". I
would like to get rid of it but cannot find out how that is done.
Thank you
Harry

NO! You should never EVER select "template". Indeed, the fact that
you can even *see* "template" is a bug that (still?) needs to be fixed!
If you select Template it will cause lots of issues.
The namespace is a freeform text string, but it's there solely for your
human purposes. It means nothing to GnuCash (except the aforementioned
"template" namespace). You can just type in ASX if you care.
The important part is the Quote Source setting and the Stock Symbol.
