[GNC] Difficulty with online price retrieval

[Samantha Payn]

   I'm afraid the problem has not been solved.

   The Get Quotes button does light up (as I mentioned in an email to the
   list just after I first reported the problem), but when I click it I
   get an error window that says: "There was a system error while
   retrieving the price quotes".

   Thank you for your persisitance and continued support.

   Good. It succeeded in finding Finance::Quote from the command line.
   That should be sufficient to enable the Fetch Rate button. Was it
   enabled?

   PS C:\Users\User>

   Where do I substitute the most recent file name from my listing? Which

   listing?

   Awaiting further guidance and thanks again.

   Samantha

   In this case it is the 2nd: gnucash.trace.VEQEP0.log created 10/08/2020
