Marco sent an example file which I analyzed. The ticker is of the form 
"AA    a" and the date has a format yy/mm/dd, IIRC, hence some 
preprocessing is required which I suspect the following programs do not 
supply. Also, in the interest of intelligent data management I suggested 
using MS Access to import and preprocess the data as well as maintain the 
integrity of the historical database (splits, etc.). This is easily 
accomplished with 3 tables, a couple of macros and a few queries. 


Cheers,

Jim
