Entering and Tracking Investments
In the Investments screen, you can track the value of the investments in your portfolio.
The Investments screen displays each investment with the current number of shares, their
price, and market value. The total market value for all of your investments is displayed at
the bottom of the screen.
Tap New to create a new investment. On the new investment screen, enter the name, sym-
bol, current price, and number of shares. Tap OK to save the new investment.
Microsoft Money can update investment prices from the MoneyCentral website. To do
this, open a connection to the Internet and tap Update Investments on the Tools menu.
When the update is complete, Microsoft Money will record the date and time and display
it after Last Quote Update at the bottom of the screen. If you do not have an Internet con-
nection from your iPAQ H3000, you can manually update the investment prices by tap-
ping the investment and entering a new price with the input panel.
NOTE: Microsoft Money can get a quote update over any direct (IP) Internet connection, including
a wireless connection or network connection. If you cannot get a quote update, check
with your Internet service provider (ISP) or network administrator to see if you require a
proxy server to connect to the Internet. If so, tap Tools then Options and set up the proxy
server.
