Blank the symbol in the investment details. Change the name to
something you will never use such as zzz1. Then you can "delete" the
unwanted zzz1 if you have no transactions remaining for that
investment.

Ok, I see what you're talking about...I have transactions dating back to
1995, so that would take a long time to change all of those.

How do I remove the 2nd Wrigley one completely from Money? I deleted it
from the "Watch" area, but it's still on that dropdown menu. I also noticed
there was another one listed there as well that I was just playing around
with that's also been deleted. Why do they still show up?

Either change the transactions to 'William Wrigley Jr. Co.' using
the drop-down list, or blank the symbol for 'William Wrigley Jr.
Co.'. Then you can re-use that symbol for "Wrigley".

Ok, I had it in "Investments to Watch" as well as under my "Wrigley" heading.
So, I removed the symbol from the one under the "Wrigley" heading, and then
the stock price updated, correctly, under the "Investments to Watch". So, I
figured that was the problem. So, I deleted the 0 shares from the
"Investments to Watch" and went to re-enter the symbol in the "Wrigley"
section, and now it says " 'WWY' is already being used as a symbol for
'William Wrigley Jr. Co.' Please enter a different symbol".

I don't have wrigley anywhere else in my portfolio...Why would it prompt me
with this error?

Go to Portfolio-> UpdatePrices-> PickQuotesToDownload and make sure it
WWY selected.

I just tried updating again and the price reads: 68.53, which is incorrect.
It did, however, update my other investment tickers appropriately.

I also tried, as you said, inputting US:WWY, which money immediately changes
to WWY. I'm thinking it reads them as the same thing. I even tried doing it
via the lookup button (find symbol), but still goes back to WWY.

I also tried a quick repair and stanard repair. The standard repair said
there were no damages.

Any other ideas?

I just tried it into a file, and the price came in as $69.09.

You could try changing the symbol to US:WWY

The investment is WWY (wrigley). It never really seems to have the correct
price listed; and even if it does, it always says "unch". I have other
symbols in there and they update just fine. It has me confused.

What is the symbol you entered for that investment?

#-1 12-14-2005, 09:25 PM

I'm having a problem with Money where I have stocks listed, and one of them
always shows "unch" even if the value has changed since the previous day/last
time I updated.

Is there a way to fix this?
