Trying to add a stock to watch list. Stock is Compass Inc Cl A (COMP = ticker). When I add it thru the "add security" button it keeps defaulting to Dow Jones Composite and will not add the stock!!!

    That's weird. I just tried to add that stock in a test file and it worked just fine for both the stock and the index:

    You're not mistakenly clicking on the "Choose Market Index" box, are you?

    I think this post reflects a issue identified here:

    @Greg Wysocki Please review your security list (Ctrl-y) and remove the DJ Composite index with the COMP ticker which I suspect is there. You should then be able to cleanly add Compass. After adding Compass, review the price history removing any prices that reflect the composite index.
