Q+ will, in subsequent feeds, correct bad data if they become aware of it. They appear to run validity checks before sending the data in that I have never seen obvious mistakes like hi < low.

Many redo the MS conversion from scratch often or even daily in order to take advantage of data corrections, stock splits, and name changes.

Patience is a virtue- contact QP directly and they will answer all your data feed questions to your satisfaction regarding the new version.

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


There is no real disagreement here. They own the data and you consented to that by opening their software. Most vendors you will find this is true and the data is to be only to be used for personal
use and not be re-distributed.

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?


yep. sure do

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.

nope, not a problem in R2. new features make this a non issue.
