How to get quote file data that is unadjusted.

Jeff, pointed me to this paragraph in the ProTA 4 User Manual:

Note. Hold down the option- key when clicking Add to add tickers with the ! character appended to the ticker symbol (such as AAPL!). Or hold down Shift-Option to prepend the ! character (such as !AAPL). In either case, a ticker beginning or ending with a ! character will instruct the Data Downloader to obtain unadjusted data. (Normally, the Data Downloader obtains data that is adjusted for splits and dividends.)

I prefer the adjusted data for analysis, but the unadjusted data can be used to find out the amount of dividends you have collected.

It's amazing what you can learn by reading the manual, and the flexibility of ProTA is amazing, too.
