Since Quicken 2001 has been "sunsetted," downloading stock quotes no longer works. I tried Q2005 but found it buggy and unhelpful, so I'm going to try to keep Q2001 going as long as I can. This means writing code to perform stock quote update by hand, since that's the only on-line service I care about.
It looks as though stock price history is stored in a QPH file in the \QUICKENW directory. If updated prices fetched from a quote server were stored in the QPH file, this might have the same effect as running "Get Online Quotes" from within Quicken 2001.
Does anyone know the file format of the QPH file? Short of grovelling over the file with a hex editor, I don't see any way to find out, since Intuit didn't document it. Also, are the current prices (shown in the "Portfolio" view) pulled from the QPH file, or are they part of the main Quicken QDF datafile?
Thanks for any help you can give,
