Has anyone come accross an anoying problem with Money 99
where it show the investment prices in cents for some
days and not others. This occurs when I download overseas
share prices using the "Online Update" function. I live
in Australia and have some share in UK and use Money 99
to keep an eye on the prices. I have setup Money to
download the prices for both my Australian and UK shares
at the same time. Everything is fine with the local
(Australian)shares, but my overseas shares seem to
download in cents (eg 933) for some days and dollars (eg
9.33) for others. I then have to manually change the cent
figures to dollars for those incorrect days. Pretty
anoying. I'd be very gratefull if anyone has a solution
to this problem. Please don't suggest an upgrade. Thanks

If you mean 'pence', for the UK funds, then this is probably because in the
UK, we quote stock prices in pence and not in the major currency unit of
pounds. Not sure whether theres much you can do in Money 99 though. There is
an update for the UK version of Money for this - wouldn't expect it to work
on any other version (and you'd get no support from MS). If you're daring,
you could try it, but make a good backup first. To undo you might have to
reinstall Money from scratch.

Thanks Glyn for the advise. Do you know where I can get
this update from. I used all the keywords I could think
of in my search, but didn't find anything resembling a
patch for this problem in KDB or anywhere in MS support
sites. Thanks

I only recall the update being released in the UK, as the problem was a
critical one over here. You might need to contact MS directly on this one.
