[amibroker] Problems with EOD data from Yahoo for NSE and BSE india

Hi,
I have been looking for a tool to download EOD stock data from the NSE
and BSE stock exchanges(India). The Amibroker software claims to be
able to this data through yahoo finance.
I am currently on a trial version of the Amibroker software trying to
see if this works.
I have tried multiple symbols, INFY.NS, HLL.NS, REL.NS etc. These are
all sumbols I verified directly Yahoo finance website and have EOD
data going back 1995 based on the charts.

I tried a date range of 1995-2005, but the data downloaded into
Amibroker is only till June, 8 2004. Incidentally when I tried the
download excell spread sheet option in yahoo with the same date range,
the excel spreedsheet downloaded contained the same date range as the
amibroker.

But just to make sure older data was actually available from yahoo I
tried with a date range of 1995-2004. This time I got about six months
of data from June 2003 -2004.

For some reason, it looks like yahoo has all the data but allows
downloading in block os 6 months.

Is there some way I can work around this and download the entire range
with amibroker.

It might help with my decision to purchase this software.

Thanks,
Sarvi
