Terry,

This is what I do to fix dataholes.

1) Create a composite from all stocks.
2) Scan said composite for 0 volume days.
3) Use these days as reference points to pull the previous bars close price.
4) Insert previous bars close into OHLC of days with 0 Volume (Step 2).

If you have a few holes in a row, You may need to do an extra pass or two.
