Hello,

To improve my knowledge of KMM (windows version), I still have questions for which I cannot find answers in the manual or on the web.

First, thanks to the help from Koos and Thomas, I now have a better understanding of regular expressions, and this led me to better locate where my online quotation update problem lies. I realized that KMM downloads a csv file from the financial website an then uses regex to extract code, quotation and date from this csv file. The trouble is that in some instances the csv file doesn't contain the correct values of quotation and date. Therefore I suspect that the problem comes from the URL used (http://finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=%1&f=sl1d1 in the case of Yahoo for instance). This finally brings me to my question : where could I find informations on how to build/adapt such URLs ? I understand that %1 is used to pass the equitie code but that's about all, I am puzzled by the "&f=sl1d1" for instance. 

Second, and it is more a comment than a question, when I try to export a report it always comes out in html format, even if I chose csv format. This is not really a problem as I found an even quicker way to export to Libre Office Calc : a simple copy/paste does the job.

Thank you in advance, whatever you can do.

Regards.
Pascal
