Peter, I used Telescan for a couple of years to download into Meta Stock. Very few days went by over that time period did I not have to correct STOCK prices mainly the high or low would be OBVIOUSLY wrong but it still took a lot of time..(the INDEXES were always OK) Since using Q+ the STOCK quotes(have checked periodically with other sources) have been OK in my opinion - just the INDEXES appear wrong. I have only in the last couple of days worried about Q+ downloads for the INDEXES and looking back I noticed the picture that was painted looked wrong compared to what I have been seeing at other places, including the Telescan Downloads. One other thing is that the NASD and NYSE volume does not show up on Q+ charts...you have to go elsewhere to visually see the volume. I used this for a quick comparison with the price movement of the INDEX. I guess the way check this is get a daily quote from several sources and put them in a spreadsheet comparing them to Q+. I will watch it for a while and you can do the same. Bob said they had recently changed vendors so maybe it will correct itself? Again, I feel very comfortable with Q+ INDIVIDUAL STOCK quotes. Monty
