I've made good progress in using the new version of MSMoneyQuotes and have mapped the right fund data.

At the end of running MSMoneyQuotes I get this error using the UK version of MS Money 2005:

Fetching Quotes:
A security in your portfolio is causing the Microsoft quote service to return an error.

Failed to update quotes. Failed to fetch quotes from MSN Money.


Any idea what's wrong?

If you name the fund, its code, etc then someone could probably do a test but at the moment it's a guess as to what is wrong

I managed to find the offending fund and remove it's code. I still have problem with National Grid PLC (UK) - NG. instrument ID aoc1bh

Running MSMoneyQuotes reports NG. -> Symbol not found on MSN Money despite the correct symbols above being in symbolmap.csv.

Has anyone managed to obtain price data for National Grid?

Yes, I have - 
The code in Money is GB:NG.
The code in SymbolMap is NG.,aoc1bh

The result just now shows £10.160 at 19/09/2023 13:40 which seems correct

That's what I have NG. & aoc1bh but I still get the error using MS Money 2005 (UK)

I had problems with NG., BP., AV. and UU. despite having the correct codes. It must be something to do with the format.
At Dan's suggestion I did a "quick file repair" operation and hey presto they all worked!

I tried the quick repair but no joy. All works except for National grid NG. / aoc1bh
