No - he decided to do it as I was really busy at the time. But I haven't seen a post from him since 1/24/2008. d

Jim was paid to create this updating UPDATING software, so he is not at liberty to simply give it away to Amibroker users. Yes, I would love to help JIM, but I can't think of anything I can do to assist writing code FOR a NEW version of this updating software. I do recall that Dingo and Jim discussed the possibility of a Joint effort once, BUT I DON'T THINK IT WENT ANYWHERE. HERE IS MORE INFORMATION>>Jim Swindle's US STOCKS DATABASE UPDATE SITE is simply an updated list of the most recent SYMBOLS in the US STOCKS FOLDER within Amibroker. When you run a download from this site, it installs the MORE RECENT list of the symbols over the OLDER list of symbols. This process of UPDATING the symbols must be followed by a HISTORICAL download of all of the TICKER data for as far back as you want to have in your database. ============================================================================ =========== ----- Original Message ----- From: cstrader <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: amibroker@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, June 03, 2008 1:46 PM Subject: Re: [amibroker] JimSwindle> US STOCKS DATABASE UPDATE Perhaps we should try to help Jim out a bit.

This link to Jim Swindle's US STOCKS DATABASE site shows that it was last udated on Jan 4, 2008. I also recall that Jim was planning to create a method so that each of us could run a LATEST TICKER symbol update an any time. We all are grateful to Jim for having done this.
