Markus:
iShares are a relatively new series.
International funds started in '96, but sectors at a later date. As far as
I can tell, IYR started trading 6/19/00. It is possible that Morgan
Stanley followed the IYR fund for a period of time before it was traded, and if
so they may be willing to let you have that data.

Dear Bill,you were right: IYR is an iShare
(surprisingly, a "regular" real-estatesector INDEX doesnŽt seem to exist
though there are many other indices forother sectors (as well as tracking
stocks)).My data supplier only carries it since April Ž01. Yahoo
Finance thruAmiQuote provides data since July 2000.IŽd liketo get
as much data as possible (reasons: see my ealier post
toPeter).5-10 years were just fine, first day of trading were
awesome.If you could provide MetaStock
format...Markus----- Original Message -----From: <<A
