: Hi Mark,
: I'm using the latest update but Yahoo UK still very selective, ie only 14 out of 60 stocks updated. Thought I'd let you know.

Mark & John

Firstly many thanks to Mark for the updated retrieve module - so far working perfectly for me.

In answer to John it appears that Yahoo have altered the symbols for the FTSE indices again (I am sure they only do it to annoy!) but all my other stocks are updating OK.

I wonder whether you have picked up the changes they made some time ago to the two letter symbols such as Cable & Wireless (CW.)- you might just check. All (with a couple of exceptions such as BT) are now followed by a "." (e.g. CW. or CW..L if you are using the L suffix).

Regards

Michael
