I only need to download the quotes and import into Money. <br /><br />This maybe a dumb question: Getdata.py has a couple user prompts in the program. Is there an easy way for me to automatically schedule to run this program via the Windows scheduler on daily basis? <br /><br />Thanks,<br />JCAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3426010974782125266.post-14612152756463019812016-08-02T14:47:33.336-04:002016-08-02T14:47:33.336-04:00Repair All Pc LLC provided our customers with qua...Repair All Pc LLC provided our customers with quality <a href="http://repairallpc.net/" rel="nofollow">computer repair service</a>.

They seem to keep the fund quotes updated better. I couldn't find CSV links for either so it would probably require scraping the data? I tried editing the quotes.py file and sites.dat with the URLs and search paramenters but couldn't get it going.

If I download from Vanguard, it appears to go smoothly, but there are no transactions in the statement. It's a well-formed OFX file, but the content is simply "Please contact the financial institution for the enrollment Process". I should probably throw an error on that message, but as of now, the scripts don't recognize it. I'm curious if you are getting the same?

Their old server is still online, but it doesn't connect to their service... it passes back a "sign up for service" message. Mostly likely, they have changed their server, and possibly their OFX identification. There are other packages that offer this service, and use OFX (e.g., Moneydance), so I think the best thing for now is to wait and see if anything shows up. In the meantime, Vanguard does offer a direct download on their site, and it's pretty easy. The problem, is that when I've tested it before, it didn't provide the info correctly to Money.
