SUMMARY
=======
 
This article describes the requirements for using Internet Quotes or
Quotes Online in Money 5.0.
 
MORE INFORMATION
================
 
Money provides free download of stock quotes using Internet Quotes. If
you do not have Internet access, Online Quotes can be obtained through
a service for a fee or directly through Intuit Service Center (ISC).
 
When you setup Online Quotes, there is a choice of services:
 
(None) - self explanatory
 
Internet Quotes - You must have an active account with an Internet
service provider to use Internet Quotes
 
Quotes Online - a dial-up service provided by your bank or directly by
Intuit Service Center (ISC).
 
Requirements for Using Internet Quotes
--------------------------------------
 
Internet Quotes requires a working connection to the Internet through
an Internet Service Provider.
 
The Internet Quotes connection in Money works directly with WSock32.dll
included with Windows 95. Most full-service Internet Providers support the
WSock32.dll. Some service providers require custom software to access their
service. For any questions about your Internet connection compatibility,
ask the service provider if they support the Windows 95 WSock32.dll.
 
Money's Internet Quotes automatically starts the connection to the
Internet if the service provider uses the standard connection method
included with Windows 95. If your provider uses a different method,
you may need to start your Internet connection before starting Money.
 
NOTE: America Online (AOL) 3.0 for Windows and Prodigy do not meet these
standards. As They use proprietary 16 bit software. However America Online
(AOL) 3.0 for Windows95 does (it just needs to be running).
 
Requirements for using Quotes Online
------------------------------------
 
You must contact your bank or ISC to enable Quotes Online. If you do not
have the service enabled, open the Application Form to sign up. Fees for
this service are set by the bank or ISC.
 
Quotes Online is accessed via a direct dial up connection and does not
require Internet access.
