Default Excel smart tags does not recognize some ticker symbols

Dan,

I have the exact same question and can't seem to get an answer from anyone
either.

(Yes, I turned on smart tags)
I am using excel 2007.
for example the following ticker symbols are not recognized:
FMCN FWLT BPTRX DXZLX
The following are recognized just fine:
US:CY US:GS US:MO RIO RTN SGP DREGX JOASX

I really like the smart tag feature for easily updating stock information,
but it only works as a soution if I can get it to work for all of the stocks
in my portfolio.

I guess I have two questions:
1 - How do I get it to work?
2 - How can I "help" it recognize stocks it should recognize? Is there a
dictionary or table I can update?

Thanks!!!!
