[moneydance] Stock Quote Synchronizer only partly working

[Carsten Langer]

Hi,

I use the Stock Quote Synchronizer to get stock quotes from Yahoo into 
Moneydance. I recognized, that it does two things, wherefrom one fails for 
me.

a) It trys to get the quote of a stock for the day that you run the 
synchronizer and put it in the Moneydance history. If you don't run the 
synchronizer on one day, you won't get the quote of that day into the 
history. The synchronizer does so by contacting a URL starting with 
"http://ichart.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=_stock_symbol_...".
This part of the synchronizer works for me.

b) It trys to of get historical quotes for those days that are missing in the 
Moneydance history for a stock. It does so by contacting a URL starting with 
"http://ichart.yahoo.com/table.csv?s=_stock_symbol_...".
This part does not work for me. Moneydance gets always back a "404 HTTP not 
found" error message from the Yahoo server (traces with Ethereal). I guess 
the syntax of the URL may not be correct.

Can anybody comment on the problems with the historical quotes? Can this be 
fixed?

Thanks and best regards
