I have recently migrated from MS Money to GnuCash and have a problem retrieving online quotes for UK funds. I am using Windows 7 (64 bit) and ActivePerl 5.10 Build 1008 (64 bit), and successfully completed the installation and confirmation of the Financial Quotes perl module. If I select a single source of Trustnet or Yahoo Europe I get an "Unable to retieve quotes for these items:" and then lists each of the ISIN numbers I entered. If I select multiple and choose UK Funds I get "There was an unknown error while retrieving the price quotes". One of the funds is ALLIANZ RCM BRIC STARS A ACC and has an ISIN of GB00B0WDH725. I get the error whether I use the name or the various options for the ISIN or include the .L currency code. I have also attempted this using gnc-fq-dump on each of the options. This output is shown below. C:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\bin>perl gnc-fq-dump trustnet "ALLIANZ RCM BRIC STARS A ACC" No results found for stock ALLIANZ RCM BRIC STARS A ACC. C:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\bin>perl gnc-fq-dump trustnet GB00B0WDH725.L No results found for stock GB00B0WDH725.L. C:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\bin>perl gnc-fq-dump trustnet GB00B0WDH72.L No results found for stock GB00B0WDH72.L. C:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\bin>perl gnc-fq-dump trustnet GB00B0WDH72 No results found for stock GB00B0WDH72. C:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\bin>perl gnc-fq-dump trustnet B0WDH72 No results found for stock B0WDH72. C:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\bin>perl gnc-fq-dump trustnet B0WDH72.L No results found for stock B0WDH72.L. The Yahoo Europe options gives the same partial reply that I have seen reported 2 years ago by other users. C:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\bin>perl gnc-fq-dump yahoo_europe B0WDH72 Finance::Quote fields Gnucash uses: symbol: B0WDH72 <=== required date: 01/05/2011 <=== required currency: "╚┼ <=== required last: 0.00 <=\ nav: <=== one of these price: 0.00 <=/ timezone: <=== optional C:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\bin>perl gnc-fq-dump yahoo_europe B0WDH72.L Finance::Quote fields Gnucash uses: symbol: B0WDH72.L <=== required date: ** missing ** <=== required currency: ** missing ** <=== required last: 0.00 <=\ nav: <=== one of these price: <=/ timezone: <=== optional ** This stock quote cannot be used by gnucash!!

If I run this for a known stock (Amazon) I get the following: C:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\bin>perl gnc-fq-dump trustnet AMZN No results found for stock AMZN.
