Yes it is possible to do that automatically.
Open aqh.format (inside Formats directory) file with NOTEPAD
and add the following line

$VOLFACTOR 0.001

And re-import all downloaded data. The volume will be now reported in 
thousands
of shares

(alternatively you can use $VOLFACTOR 0.01 and then it will report 
volume in
hundreds)
