[GNC] Stock data export to Portfolio Performance

[rsbrux]

Dear Thomas,
Thanks for pointing out Portfolio Performance; I have been looking for a way to extract such reporting from GC, but perhaps I would be better off using an external tool like PP.
If you succeed in finding or creating such a bridge between GC and PP, please post back here, as I am sure others (including myself) would be interested.

The answer really is embedded in what format Portfolio Performance needs for its input. I didn't see anything leap out at me in their website about that in my brief scan. Most likely, you'd use a gnucash report to output data to a spreadsheet and import to PP from there.
