no longer matched the existing sectors, meaning all along to go along 
and find out what's going on. Sometimes I'm just a wee

But I 
have to agree that a universal sector/industry classification system is a good 
idea.

Hi Mark ,<FONT face=Arial 
size=2>Pacific
It would seem so I haven't taken the time yet to 
absorb the changes  despite the fact that they have been in thewind 
for sometime now  , for the time been they are supporting the old sector 
but with a close only value, it maybe that there the same as the USA 
listings and TJ or other User may have created the Sector / industry 
categories already .
All we need  to do is make sure our 
stock codes match there  industry.
 
Pacific has posted the new indices  and 
there make up ( P which site did you get them from the asx has em in acrobat 
format which is hard to cut and paste from .. 
 
anyway here's the link to the asx for everyone to 
have a look at ASX user please comment on what you think needs to be changed 
to fit in to the new listings
