<DIV><FONT size=2><BR></FONT></DIV><FONT size=2>sorry about the incorrect
topic.<BR>I'm sure this topic has come up but how bout one more time? Can
someone give me<BR>an idea of how to add current quotes through OLE into a
Quatro Pro database? I<BR>can get these numbers from metastock or the web or
even quicken. I'm sure the<BR>Excel instructions would be similar so either
would suffice. Thanks in advance.<BR><BR><BR><BR></FONT></BODY></HTML>
