Description fourcandle 2009-01-06 12:11:03 UTC 
The following process leads only to a greyed out 'OK' button:

1. Insert >
2. Link to External Data > 
3. Type: http://finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=VOD.L&f=a   (for example)
4. Press Enter
5. Text Import Dialogue Box
6. Click 'OK'
7. Check: Update every 60 seconds

I can't understand why Issue 1834 is FIXED althoug this feature has not been fixed 

BTW: Helo is wrong, I filed  Issue 106605 for this problem

I will not mark this issue as a DUP, becuase I beleive that this Enhancement
Request should be discussed newly. We have lots of DUPS for that issue, what
show that such enhancement would eb useful.

@fourcandle:
As you can read in help, this function "Inserts data from an HTML, Calc, or
Excel file into the current sheet as a link." not from csv source! That's
completely without any logic, but  Issue 1834 has been closed without fixing
this. There is a rather crude, unsatisfying "workaround", please read  Issue
91607 / comments from fst Wed Sep 17 16:26:02 +0000 2008. But of course that's
not with automatic refresh ...
