: I found when I retrieve the historical data, the ver. 4.2 only allow
: maximum 200 days data for retrieving, whereas there is no such problem
: for ver. 4.1 Hello Wang,
The historical Yahoo server only will update 200 prices per request.
This has always been the case with this server. In versions prior to
4.2 you could request longer date ranges, but you were only getting
the first 200. To eliminate confusion about why the other later
prices wouldn't be updated, we added a check to make sure you
only request 200 or less at a time. In addition, 4.2 also makes sure
to set the "View/Split Adjusted" option for you when retrieving from
these sources. Previously, you were required to set it properly before
each retrieve. Thanks,
Mark
