Thanks Mike.
I have it and will post it to the group folder Fundamental Data.
That was a good share for the group.
Most users interested in historical fdata would probably be
interested in it.
It's a user friendly way to get the data.
I would say as AB is releasing an SQL plug in the future there will
probably be interest in converting fdata to SQL otherwise users will
have to take the ASCII import path to access it in AB. (I guess- I
don't know much about SQL compared to ASCII).
I will add some further posts about other sources later for the
experts who want to go right into fdata use.
Brian.
