"he is after the price of a stock AS IT WAS TRADING, say 60 days ago, but NOT reflecting the effects of any subsequent splits." Sounds like he is. I am trying to figure how why? A stock may have gone through 10s of splits in the past. He can solve his "problem" by getting a data vendor that does not adjust splits automatically and don't ever adjust them. Of course the concept is unrealistic, and will cause him more pain than gain. Dell price is $41 per share, not $82 or $1000 or whatever it would be if you bought first trading day. The percentage increase is what counts.
