Thank you for responding. I tried ^DJX, DJX and $DJX....Yahoo uses ^DJX, but I
get "Error during download. Yahoo - 404 not found....etc.
And, as you said, Yahoo shows that there is no historical data for DJX.
I tried Google and MSN, but I get the same error message. I guess I won't be
able to get DJX with any of the data providers, but there are many other things
to trade, so I will stop trying to force something that isn't going to happen!

... but remember use $ or other marker before DJX like Yajoo uses a
"^". On QQQQ Yahoo shows historical data back to 1999. Hope this
helps
