Hi all, need some help. I am copying a list of stocks from another QP user and loading them into my system for review. When I attempt to review them only the last letter of the ticker shows, I then get an appropriate message that D or G cannot be found.
I have found that all the columns are shifted off the left side of the page by four rows and can that I can manually correct them one at a time. Quite tedious and time consuming... But I have not been able to shift the contents of the entire document to the left margin.
An example of what I am receiving:
AAFGD , 20DayHI= 5.000,,,,
AAFGD , F&Slo , 0.938 , 0 , 20 , 03/09/1998
AAHS , 20DayHI= 3.750,,,,
AAHS , Carl35 , 3.438 , -2 , 51 , 03/18/1998
AAII , 20DayHI= 19.125,,,,
AAII , F&Slo , 14.500 , -37 , 48 , 02/27/1998
ABACF , 20DayHI= 2.094,,,,
ABACF , Carl35 , 1.938 , -2 , 53 , 03/13/1998
ABREF , 20DayHI= 0.812,,,,
ABREF , F&Slo , 0.438 , 0 , 35 , 02/27/1998
ACEP , 20DayHI= 4.375,,,,
ACEP , Carl35 , 3.062 , 61 , 50 , 03/18/1998
ACLR , 20DayHI= 2.250,,,,
ACLR , Carl50 , 2.188 , -1 , 57 , 03/19/1998
ACRG , 20DayHI= 2.812,,,,
ACRG , Carl35 , 2.375 , 17 , 54 , 03/19/1998
ADCC , 20DayHI= 5.312,,,,
ADCC , F&Slo , 4.500 , 8 , 43 , 03/03/1998
ADMG , 20DayHI= 3.875,,,,

TIA, Carl

Bob...

I used W Bros for quite a while, a long time ago. I was with a very active and aggressive group on Prodigy. All of us got "cross-wise" with the brothers. The dispute centered on who actually owned the data once it had been downloaded from them. Of course, no one won and most of us left WB for that reason. They threatened a law suit.

All that aside, I'm interested in the comment about sending corrected data in subsequent feeds. If today's data is bad, will Q+ correct that in tomorrow's feed?

Even if that is true, it won't help my MS files which I intend to have Q+ update. Once the MS file is written to, any editing must be done manually. Of course, I get bad data from Primate now. They don't bother to correct it and for the most part, it goes unseen...forever.

It's probably their fault I can't find stocks that double in a month <G>.
