MS Money Question

Hi All,

I've started used the MS money sunset edition, and so far its looking great! however I cannot get my investment prices to update, its stuck at the same price for when i set it up.
EG - when i set up MS money investment in X was work £140, now its work £130 but its still saying £140 - is there a way i can update this?

thanks.
T

    This was disabled by Microsoft many years ago.

    Some people have found methods to import prices. I have never seen anything as clean as just clicking the update button.

    Have a search of the forums, you'll see many suggestions.

    auto updates have been stopped. Only option is to do it yourself, or there are apps (paid) which do it, or a java routine for free

    Try this:
    https://gaiersoftware.com/money

    I and several others on here use this software. It works well.

    There's a free trial which gives full functionality for 60 uses. That could be 60 daily updates (of your whole portfolio) or over a year of weekly updates.

    It costs $9.99 for unlimited use.

    I use the gaiersoftware updater too. Works brilliantly and as ms money hasn't cost me anything since 1999 it seemed a fair price as well as supporting the developer.
    Remember the saying: if it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is.
