You may have recently imported data from the Classic MSN or my.msn.com  pages to the new MSN.com Money Watchlist/Portfolio and may not have received all of your Watchlist/Portfolio data. The MSN team has resolved the issue and you can now regain access to that information by following the steps below.

Note: These steps only apply if your Watchlist has already been imported and there is data missing. If you have not already imported a Watchlist, please go to the Watchlist, sign in, and you will then be prompted to begin the import. You may need to return to this step if you find that data is missing after your first attempt to import.

Step 1: Create a new Watchlist and delete any Watchlists from previous imports

Step 2: Re-import your existing Watchlist or Portfolio data from MSN.com or my.msn.com into a new Watchlist

Step 3: Clean any erroneous data imported into your new Watchlist(s).

If you need more details about the steps, please go to this article.

If you are still having difficulties or would like to report any errors, please reply to this thread.

Thank you!

    Right you are, Jack. The Print function was one of the most useful things about PM - I've printed every day for years. Obviously they could care less about their actual users!

    using Internet Explorer; use the print function while viewing your portfolio manager, then copy and paste to a blank excel worksheet.  you do not need to use csv format for the copy and paste

    That method might be useful.

    I have not found a way to export the original Portfolio into Excel, or into .csv format.

    I thought I was already paying for the use of PM.  I paid $20.00 per yr to use Windows Live Hotmail Plus and that allowed me to get into Portfolio Manager..  Otherwise you could only have a ticker watchlist for free without email account.  Yes, I would be willing to pay more a year to keep the old PM.  Are you listening Microsoft????

    Anyway...my last post I said I would follow Bob Berger's article and import from my Excell.

    It worked!  the only error in the article was that you need to save your data worksheet into a certain format and he had the letters reversed.  The fomat needed is:  .csv format (comma delimited)

    See instructions: 

     www.doughroller.net   article by Bob Berger: Making the most of Morningstar. 

    This was found under the following search:

    I think, in truth, we may be the power users / 'lunatic fringe' that did not warrant the investment by them in a robust investment tool, versus basic usage by mainline users.  

    And, not only was it nice while it lasted, but was free while it lasted (essentially).

    I guess we are getting what we paid for.
