No rush, Karl. Tomorrow will be fine.

Karl,

The download came through this morning without titles. Don't know if it's just me.

Guys,

Karl is on holiday until next Thursday now, but I will make sure he takes a look at any issues when he returns,

Hilary,

Have the downloads sorted themselves out or are you still having problems ?

hilary - 30 Sep 2004 16:20 - 81 of 218

Karl,

Everything has ben fine, thanks very much. It was just the one day that the titles didn't come through and even that wasn't a major problem.

Now about that "Index" column ............

:o)

BrianTrayda - 30 Sep 2004 16:26 - 82 of 218

Hi Karl - any comment about the earlier preparation of the download? 11pm is too late to do anything with the data.

Karl(MoneyAM) - 01 Oct 2004 11:12 - 83 of 218

BrianTrayda,

It is still on the list, can't give you anything concrete at the moment.

Re post 70, is there any reason why certain UB sectors have double entries? Could the duff entries be removed please?

IanT(MoneyAM) - 13 Oct 2004 08:24 - 86 of 218

hil,

I will pass this message onto Karl.

Ian

Ian/Karl,

Some of the overseas data is definitely dodgy. There are stocks which show a close higher than the daily high or lower than the daily low. How does that work?

I see that some of the UB sectors are still duplicated. Is there an update of if or when the index column might be inserted?

BrianTrayda - 24 Oct 2004 09:02 - 88 of 218

Or getting it around 7pm as well? ;)

hilary - 24 Oct 2004 12:15 - 89 of 218

BT,

Being brutally honest, if the data is inaccurate, it doesn't really matter what time of day it's delivered!

IanT(MoneyAM) - 25 Oct 2004 09:50 - 90 of 218

Hilary/BT,

Karl is back in tomorrow, so I will pass your comments onto him then - Hil, can you give me one or 2 specific examples and I will get they guys to take a look?

Ian

hilary - 25 Oct 2004 09:58 - 91 of 218

Ladies and Gents,

Sorry for the long wait but I have managed to address some of the issues you have mentioned.

- The duplicate rows have been removed.

- A column which shows all the index's the stock belongs to has been added.

- The OHLC data for non-traded stock has been fixed.

The outstanding issues are:

- Some strange OHLC values for lightly traded stock. (I will be looking into the actual data we have for these stocks.)

- The data download at a sensible time.

Thanks for your patience,

Karl.

hilary - 27 Oct 2004 16:18 - 94 of 218

Ladies first, BT.

:o)

Thanks Karl.
