Hi Larry,
You most likely have no prices recorded in these time periods. You can
check using "Edit/All Data..." with the "Prices" data type selected. You
can use the "Yahoo (Historical)" server to update these date ranges. One
possible reason for the price gaps is that you can only request 200 day's
worth of quotes per request. Keep your date range requests to 6 months
or so, and you will be fine.

Mark
