Hi,
FYI: Here is what QuotesPlus has to say about their handling of data holes
(and the need to backup their data)
BTW, even during the holidays, they have been very responsive to my
questions.

Hi John,
Al data issues are taken care of by our data department. If you ever come
across a hole in your charts, you can contact our data department by e-mail
at data@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx They can usually take care of the problem within a
day or two.
You data files can be affected if there is a crash during the updating of
your data files. We recommend creating a backup of the Quotes Plus Data
directory, in case of just such a problem.
Hope this helps.
Greg

Subject: data holes
HI,
I am doing a QP2 trial with Amibroker and the subject of data holes, and
how data vendors handle them, has come up amongst some of the Amibroker
users.
How do you handle this issue?
Here is the context:
"On the subject of "data holes", I can tell you that the data from CSI
Unfair Advantage has none. Occassionally one or two show up, but there are
enough serious users around who notify CSI of the problem and it is fixed
with the next day's data distribution. However, if a user continues to use
their original data (local database?), they won't see the thousands of data
fixes that come through every day. I would suggest that users of QP2 (or
whatever) may have a similar problem. Perhaps your data supplier is
distributing fixes (missing data, splits, etc.) but you aren't seeing these
changes coming into your local data? "
Also, unrelated question: what happens to the data that day if I have a
system crash during a Downloader session?
