I don't know what the various foreign Yahoo sites
carry, but whatever they carry can be downloaded with dCenter and perhaps the
other Yahoo downloaders.

Bill, I think, Yahoo offers historical data for download only
for US Stocks and indices. Albeit, the daily data could work - maybe Yuri

You can update your MS files from Yahoo with appropriate software.
There are a number available, including dCenter which will pickup the
historical CSI data, or daily Reuters data, if the historical is not
yet available. This particular program operates through DownLoader
so it maintains whatever groupings you currently use for your MS data
folders.> > Bill> ----- Original Message
