[GNC] Mutual Fund - Price Import from csv, "Namespace could not be understood"

[David Carlson]

Hi,

I have not tried that particular method to import prices but I would
suggest verifying that you created the csv file using the the same encoding
that you are using for the import and that the namespace, symbol and
currency already exist in your data file.

Good Luck
