Re options, may I reiterate that there are a few too many for a block download. Just checked and found R2 scan for hasoptions gave 2617 hits. #/stk varies with how many markets it's on; found 18 for HPRT and 38 for IBM, so how about 28*2617 = 73,276 for a first guess.

-it is easy enough to get selected daily option quotes for stocks of interest and export them to metastock--I use PSM. personaltools.com
It can also grab historical data "Notes: Data is provided by Dreyfus Brokerate at tradepbs.com. Data is not available for all symbols, and is not available for dates before September 6, 1996."
but not for options.
