Quicken2008 Deluxe

For about the last week each time I have updated my investment
accounts I have received a message that Stock Splits May be Missing.
The first time there were two entries for two different splits of the
same security, but the last few times there has been only one entry,
which indicates that the stock was split on 12/15/08. The security is
one that we bought and sold in 2004.

I have validated the file but that has not helped.

Any suggestions on how I can get rid of this message?

Thanks.

Determine if there really is a split missing (Yahoo, or similar) and enter
it in Quicken?

Or perhaps stop downloading prices for that security, if you no longer own
it?

I checked online at Fidelity and there was a split last December. I do
not understand why it took Quicken update so long for it to come up.
Since I sold the stock over five years ago and the name appears to
have changed (same symbol) and I cannot find any information about
when that happened, and it is only listed on the pink sheets, I do not
think I will enter it.

I have hidden the security, which stops updates on it. Is there any
other way to stop downloading prices for a specific security?

Thanks for your advice.

Remove the ticker symbol.

Go to the security list and cur the symbol from its normal place and paste
it into "notes" for reference.

Your choice.

Yes. In the One Step Download dialog, you should see (when you first
initiate an OSU) the "Select Quotes" option. Click that and remove the
check mark from any security whose price you don't want to download.

Thanks, John. That is exactly what I was looking for.
