   And neither did this one :-). Gnucash mailing list doesn't allow inline
   images, it only allows you to attach images to your email although I
   generally just manage to paste an image as the very last thing in an
   email and that works fine for me.
   You don't mention which OS but presumably Windows ?  If so there is an
   issue with retrieving quotes
   ([1]https://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-user/2023-April/106555.
   html) which has been fixed in the nightly builds and I think from
   memory there is a release planned for 30 April with this and some other
   bug fixes in it.
   You can either install the latest nightly build from
   [2]https://code.gnucash.org/builds/win32/stable/gnucash-5.0-2023-04-26-
   git-5.0-113-gb7e966d828+.setup.exe, wait for the fix to be officially
   released in a few days or you could install 4.14 for now which I think
   from memory didn't have the same issue?
   Cheers David H.

     Hi All,
     Apologies for duplicate request as first request didn’t go out with
     images!
     Require some assistance please to reinstate Online Quote retrieval
     for USA and Australian (ASX) stocks.
     Previously running Gnucash 4.13 and no problem retrieving quotes
     upgraded to v5.0 and went through the previous setting to ensure all
     ok but cannot get ASX stocks to update – seems like the USA stocks
     are updating and the USD / AUD currency is updating. Have gone
     through the FAQ, documentation and using Gnucash cant find a
     solution
     Current system:
     Retrieving quotes from “get quotes” executes the Perl script and
     seems to run and ends after about 20 sec with zero reported errors.
     All Australian stocks not updated; AUD/USD currency is updated as
     are some USA stocks but USA exchange currently closed.
     Checked Finance::Quote as per below.
     Running the following commands, I get stock price updates.
     The settings in security editor are greyed out so cant select quote
     source for Australian shares have set as below, previously had to
     include .AX after Australian shares to get update have tried both
     ANZ and [4]ANZ.AX in the symbol / abbreviation field – same result
     no update
     Appreciate any assistance to get this working again.
     Thank you.
     Kevin
