Allan, There was a structural problem briefly with CorpActs.inf a few weeks back. The first part of the file did not have correct line endings, but the tail did. Since the file is ordered oldest to newest, the result was that only newer splits were visible. On the Yahoo group, some people have built tools to help manage changes to CorpActs. I haven't tried them and hope/believe they ultimately won't be necessary. You can do the following as a safeguard. Save a recent copy of CorpActs.inf somewhere on your machine. If there is ever a problem with the downloaded version, rename the saved copy "CorpActs.unf", and restart QCharts. The "unf" file will be read, instead of whatever CorpActs.inf file was downloaded from the service. This was initially a testing feature, but can help subscribers also.
