Hello,

Thank you for your proposal.
What I would like is to retrieve in KMM quotations of equities whith codes such as FR0010287094.PA.
KMM can retrieve quotations with code such as GSZ.PA from yahoo web page but not with code such as FR0010287094.PA which are not on yahoo web page but on yahoo france web page. Unfortunately when I chose Yahoo France in KMM config it doesn't find the quotation either (see attached screen captures).
KMM uses regular expressions (see attached screen captures) to retrieve quotation from webpage, the problem is when the web page is changed, it requires to adapt the reg ex in KMM. I have tried to understand how regex work but it is quite tricky.
Thank you if you can help me in this matter. Let me know if you need any other informations.
Of course, I am also interested in any information that could help me to understand how to use regex.

Regards
Pascal

Hi, 

This is your regex professor speaking. 
I'd be pleased to help, but you haven't forwarded the screenshots. 
Please describe what it exactly is you want to achieve. 

Cheers, 
Koos

Hello, 

Thanks to your help and to the manual, I have now completed the migration of my accounts from MSMoney to KMM and everything is fine (I much prefer the "data base logic" of KMM than the one of MSMoney which is confusing). However there is a slight problem that bothers me. The online quotation update from yahoo is working well for equities with codes like GSZ.PA but not when the code is like FR0010287094.PA (see attached screen capture KMM_yahoo_FR0010287094_PA.jpg). 

Although this code is known on Yahoo France (see attached screen capture yahoo_france_FR0010287094_PA.jpg), the online update from this source in KMM also returns an error message (see attached screen captures KMM_yahoo_france_FR0010287094_PA.jpg and yahoo_france_certificat.jpg). 

I presume this could be solved by adapting the adhoc "regular expressions" but this is far beyond my skills. 
Thank you in advance if you can help me. Otherwise nevermind, I will update manually these equities. KMM is still a great piece of software. 

Best regards 
Pascal Thévenard

Hi Pascal 

Glad you've made progress. 

I'm forwarding your email to the users list. It's possible another user in France or elsewhere may be able to help. I'll try and have a look, but regular expressions are one of my weak spots, I'm afraid.
