: Mark,

: thanks for your quick reply. Yes, it happens with ALL stocks. I'm downloading major US stocks, like the Dow Jones 30 stocks or the S&P100. I tried almost all of them and more, and the problem is there all the time. What I do right now is downloading the split information with the other Yahoo server, but as you understand is very unconvenient, since I need to manually insert every single split date, and since I'd like to build a database of about 200 of stocks, this is obviously too much trouble. Try with Microsoft (MSFT - if I remember correctly, Microsoft had a split this year on the 18th february), or any other major stock. Besides, I checked on Yahoo to see if the Adjusted database is correct there, and it definitely seems to be ok. So I guess the problem is somewhere in the connection between FM and Yahoo.

: Thanks - Jo

Hi Jo,

Thanks, I see this too. It appears Yahoo changed the formats for the
Adjusted Historical case. We'll be releasing a new internet retrieve
module to fix this. Check with "Help/FM on the Web/Check for Updates...".
It will be fixed in version 334.

Thanks,
Mark
