Hi Eric,
The data is not only end of string orientated or limited to (^|.)AX
The "Actual" search text is:
^AORD Yahoo index (Beginning of string)
^AXEJ Yahoo index (Beginning of string)
& so on.....
BHP.AX Yahoo ticker Format (End of String)
CTX.AX Yahoo ticker Format (End of String)
& so on....
Thanks for the post though.
KR
Michael.
