Papillon, here's a list of some problems I encountered:
1) I have a long list of stocks and somewhere I had a stock repeated twice. I went and change one symbol to a different one, and started giving me the new quotes for both, even though one had still the old symbol.
2) I add one new symbol and see the line show all 0s for 10 minutes or more (this particularly applies if I have that symbol somehwere else in the spreadsheet.
3) I had one bunch of symbols that I wanted copied from one sheet to another using copy and paste. Guess what? It copied just a handful and the rest I had to enter by hand. (I think the problem was that some of the symbols were in bold(?))
4) Today there was a stock with a 100K vol and 2+ in price. All of a sudden, it shows a 5K vol and 1/16+ in price (with correct last, bid, ask, etc.). Like all of a sudden they said, end-of-day, let's start over.
5)Much, much slower than v2 (I ran both today for comparison).
I can go on and on and on (I didn't even mention about the printing problems).
This is my experience in my little neck of the woods. To each his own, and if it's working OK for you, I'm happy that that's the case.
I had iq for 3 years and this is the worst it's ever been for me.
Thank god I still have V2 to come back to. My spreadsheets (*.por) are a little old, but better than nothing...
Good luck. Michael. |
