Hi,

The only way that I know how to find particular symbols at Yahoo is to
type in a key word like Gold into the symbol box.

As you type in letters Yahoo does it's best to perform a lookup of
various symbols that start with those letters.  

Don't worry about the list Yahoo generates when you are typing in a
description or a company name, if you look at the bottom of this list
you will see a message that states:  
[show all results for "gold"]

Click on that link will bring you to a page with all symbols that have
those letters or word in the description field.  Since you are looking
for an Index, click on that column header and it will provide a list
of 42 indexes.  ^HUI is the one I use.  Some folks like ^GOX.

As for the US Dollar index, it doesn't look like they offer a symbol
for that.

Best of luck,
MM
