Perhaps importing your details via the ASCII-importer is a solution. 
You basically input&update your details for a list of symbols for 
example in a XL-file, save it as a csv-file, and import once after 
each adjustment:

Your format-file (to call via the ASCII-importer) looks, for example, 
like this:

$FORMAT Ticker,FullName
$SKIPLINES 1
$SEPARATOR ,
$OVERWRITE 1
$AUTOADD 1
$NOQUOTES 1

The actual csv-file which you then import looks like this:

Ticker,Fname
ACNFCOMF IX,ABC News Washington Post US Weekly Consumer Comfort Index
ADP CHNG IX,ADP National Employment Report SA Private Nonfarm Level 
Change
CHPMINDX IX,US Chicago Purchasing Managers Index SA

Obviously, you will need to use/add the variable names for the 
specific items you want to include in your overview but these are 
described in the User Manual; search for ascii)
