Hi Chris success at last!!

 

Thanks to you - simple really when you have the right recipe.

 

I guess I'm not as good as I once was at following instructions!

 

It you are ever in Wellington I'll buy you a beer.

 

Cheers

 

Tony

Thanks Erik.

Tony,

Unless you use ActivePerl for something else, I suggest you uninstall Active
Perl (Control Panel, Apps), then download and install the latest GnuCash
(2.6.11) from http://www.gnucash.org/ .
Then use, Start, All apps, GnuCash, Install Online Price Retrieval for
GnuCash to install Strawberry Perl which is the preferred perl for GnuCash
these days.

Regards,

Chris Good

 

Hi Tony,

 

My pleasure. Happy GnuCash’ing.

I’m copying the GnuCash User mailing list so all know your issue is resolved.
