Hi, 

if you have used the ASCII import please check if your Yahoo format
file contains the line "$VOLFACTOR 0.01". Since some time the Yahoo
volume data is scaled down by a factor of 100 by default when readind
into the database to avoid a data overflow for large stocks and indices.

Best regards,
