After R3 got installed about a week ago, most of my prices got downloaded ok
(but not all!). Some of the highs or lows for previous days were multiplied
by 10, causing the price graph to be screwed up. Today, the bug is back in
full force: half of my stock quotes for today were 10x too large. Here we
go again!

If Intuit produced an R3 revision to correct the problem, the problem is
theirs, not the quote provider (unless Intuit is trying to undo or reverse
an error Comstock is making...)

Sorry, I should have explained. Intuit admitted there was a problem with
quotes and supposedly supplied a fix. Here is the link.

http://faq.quickensoftware.ca/detail.php?&qbid=QK1025&product=&buid=QK&cat

But on rereading some of the posts, it seems there are a couple of problems
going on. There is the 10x bug, which happened with some Canadian stocks
but not with others, which they say they have fixed, but they haven't. And
there is the delayed or missing quote problem, which may only happen with
mutual funds. It seems too much a coincidence that both would happen at
almost exactly the same time, but they could be entirely unrelated.

In my case, I'm back to going through each stock one by one, editing the
quote history and moving the decimal point to the left .
