OK, I can understand Microsoft's reluctance in publishing the dll interfaces
and associated sample code because of the support overload. In which case,
Microsoft should update its online MSN Money quotes servers to include stock
quotes from emerging markets such as India. I have been using MS Money for 10
years now and every time I show it to a friend (or even Certified Financial
Analysts) here in India, they are simply floored by the features and
functionality. Hardly do they realise that I have to update stock quotes
manaulally each day.

I say there is great potential for MS Money software to be sold in India if
only Microsoft puts the proper MSN Money support for India in place first. I
am even willing to be a distributor myself.

Will someone in Microsoft repond to this, please?

People have been asking for dll code for 10 years and MS have resolutely
said no. For every user who knows what they are doing there are 10 who will
blow it. MS don't want the extra support load to support the incompetent who
won't fess up that they tried to hack Money - so the answer will stay at NO!

I do not respond to any emails that I have not specifically asked for.

I use MS Money extensively in India and I have the same problem - cannot
update quotes online. I have to enter everything manually by hand. now that
my portfolio is geting big (:-), I cannot afford this anymore.

Is there a way I can write an extension DLL that can attach to Money and
download the quotes from a third party web site of my choice. That would
solve the problem. If this is possible, I strongly encourage Microsoft to
release sample code for the same.

You cannot get the quotes updated via the web since MSN Money does not
support Hong Kong exchanges and MS Money gets its quotes from MSN Money.

You can Manually update prices and add your own values: Investing -
Portfolio Manager - Update Prices - Update Price Manually
I would suggest NOT using a symbol for this stock so as to not confuse MSN
Money when it tries to get quotes for your symbols (you could place the
symbol in the comments field in its Investment Details, for reference)

I'm using the Ms MOney 2006 version, I hold a new stock in Hong Kong but I
cannot add this to the software.... How can I update the quote from web ? Or
how can I input the market price manually so that it can display how much I
earned? Thanks!
