[GNC] On line quote debugging help

[Kalpesh Patel]

Oh, sorry, my bad. Yes that is the question - why are some of the quote
sources greyed out, and follow on question is: is there a way to edit that
list to toggle the source?

I don't quite follow your question about greyed out items in the source
list. Do you mean that when you have retrieve online quotes checked and the
single-source radio button selected that some of the quote sources are
greyed out in the the single-source list box?
