As an addendum, if I copy my file I have the same problem. If I then run validate and delete historic pricing, the last 5 years DO get put back for all stocks including the ones with just a few days of historic data. But I don't want to do that since I compare back to 1995 on occasion and that is over 20 years of pricing history. The validate fix only retrieves the last 5 years. Is there anyway to dump the pricing table and upload it again?
I believe the problem occurred when Quicken upgraded to the latest patch right before I left on vacation on 3-6. I restored the 3-5 backup I made before I left on vacation and everything is there and fine. So this can be closed. q.lurker had the best suggestion of restoring since I really hadn't done anything in the file since my return except online updates. I am still ( from a curiosity perspective) interested in why 10 of roughly 100 securities lost all historical data and obviously had some sort of corruption since I couldn't do a manual input of data.Thank you for all of your suggestions- I am going to examine a few files from the corrupted DB tomorrow.
