Thanks for the info

After posting the previous message, I discovered that ALL Toronto TSX
stock quotes for June 30 were 10x the Friday quotes - took a while to go
through and manually delete and re-enter - Quotes for mutual funds
appeared to be OK.

I too had the problem Friday evening and on Saturday

FYI, i just ran (Sunday afternoon) "Update Prices" and about 1/2
picked up the 6/29 quotes. I could not figure out any rhryme or
reason - some stocks & mutual funds updated, some did not / alphabet
sequence didn't make sense either.

I then tried "Download Historical Prices" and everything is now
updated.

I do of course have a lot of spurious 6/30 price quotes.

Clue: NONE of the fucking stock markets were OPEN on SATURDAY, June 30,
2007.

I think most of us were aware of that on Friday June 29th. That's why
we were so amazed that Quicken Price downloads were dated the 30th.
Please read the thread and try to understand what's going before you reply.
