Yes... You just "save" them in a file...Everytime you want to view them, go to the file and open it...As a matter of fact u can give the file your own name and it will appear on the screen...Re-entering them, every time u want a quote, is not necessary... ed

J.Kittle - Ed is correct in that he can log on with his notebook from wherever condominium he is located at up there in ski land.

So if you have things set up on a notebook and log on wherever you set down, it would be just as if you were at home. It is my understanding that your portfolio is resident on your computer, and it communicates with the Internet Trader computer to download info to what is in your computers portfolio.

Unfortunately if you go to a new computer somewhere distant, you have to download Internet trader to that computer, and then put your portfolio in. An alternate is to set up a bunch of portfolios in Canada Stockwatch and that should work from anywhere in the world as long as you log in with your password, not quite as sophisticated as Internet trader but should work.

J.Kittle - supplementary, as it is not quite as bad as I portrayed. On your resident computer in the Internet trader directory you will see the names of all the pages you set up.

Just before you leave your computer copy those files onto a floppy.
At your new computer location, download Internet trader, set it up running with your password, then copy the files into the Internet trader directory, and this would save you from typing in all of your stocks, I think.

All your stocks are resident on their computer but not your portfolio, it is only on your resident computer, and that is why you have to take the files with you and load them on the new computer you log in from. At least thats how I think it works.

An alternative here would be to E-mail them and see if they have any suggestions.

Haven't done this before but have set Internet trader up many times now, and it is quite a neat program, would like better end-of-day charts though.

Now you can also set up a portfolio in imoney, also in Yahoo, each of which have your password, so that is an alternative. With this arrangement you just log in wherever you are with your password, call up your portfolio and you got it 15 minutes delayed.
