I'm talking about the s&p weekly report that is part of QP2. In the report all the symbols begin with !iw.... The report is titled S&P Weekly Index report.. The problem is my data has only been updated thru 6/5/98..Someone else confirmed that their data wasn't up to date either.. We distribute the IRL indexes once a week. The daily version of the indexes begfins with !ID- , the weekly version begins with !IW- . If you're downloading from the internet, you receive the daily version of the indexes, if you're downloading from the 800 number, you receive the weekly version of the indexes. In either case, they are completely replaced each week with the appropriate 2 years of history. You always receive the weekly S&P indexes and the daily S&P indexes. There is a problem in the report, first of all, it shouldn't be named weekly S&P report, because it handles both the S&P indexes and the IRL indexes. Also, it isn't working properly when the IRL's and S&P's are at different dates. The weekly report has been corrected now, and will be released soon, the daily report will be corrected also. Gary
