Quicken doesn't offer much in the way of prices for foreign securities.
If you can find a source that will give you a properly formatted comma
delimited file of those prices, Quicken can import prices from .csv files.

Thanks John.

Is there a template or layout for this please? Under the
circumstances, it will have to do.

select, "How do I import data into Quicken?", and keep opening appropriate
links and you will see the format for a comma delimited file of prices and
how to import it.

Note: you will have to assign ticker symbols to your Quicken securities
(that you want to import prices for) even if they do not have tickers in
the real world (any unique text should do). The .csv file must use the
same ticker as your Quicken security.
