Thanks, worked like a charm. Didn't realize I needed the "." Instead of the "+", switched it and everything worked fine. Not sure how to make it avoid that mistake in the future. Is there some option setting, or just a manual thing I need to do each time.

Note that for quotes download, the symbol must start with a period.
For example, .MSQGK is the symbol for Microsoft July $30. Change the
symbol in the investment details.

This will probably cause problems downloading position data from
your broker. If you want the quotes, you will need to tell Money
each time not to change the symbol to match what the broker download
says.
