Hi Eric. Just wanted to let you know that the problem with historical data is not restricted just to the indices. Check out a chart of cnet and nbty. On NBTY's chart tc2000 gives a 1/2/98 price of 59.20 on a weekly chart, when the real 1/2/98 price, at least according to telescan and yahoo is around 12. And in cnet's chart, tc2000 shows a high of 106.46 at week 4/7/98, whereas telescan and yahoo both show cnet's price around 40 during early part of april. Can you check these 2 charts and see how they compare to mine. Maybe I just have a bad cd. I've emailed them with the same question, but here it is 2 weeks later without a response. TIA Luis

Eric I am not sure, but I think it goes something like this: as you know, the Dow has its famous divisor to keep things continuous I believe that the theoretical high and low are the sums of the actual highs and lows of the 30 stocks over the day or week or what ever perhaps someone out there can correct me if I am wrong - in any event Barrons publishes the weekly actual and theoretical highs and lows - the actual are what we see in the paper etc, the theoreticals are more extreme Bob
