: I've tried several times to retrieve the price history
: for the NASDAQ 100 Index from Yahoo(Historical) using
: the symbol ^NDX as shown on the Yahoo site with no luck. I then tried the symbol NDX contained in your database and did receive the chart from 1/91 thru 11/27/98 but can't seem to get anything more recent. Any suggestions? Thanks for your help!

Hi Wyatt,
The historical Yahoo servers are only able
to retrieve 200 quotes per request. If you
break up your request into multiple smaller
requests, you should be able to get whatever
prices you request.

Thanks,
Mark
