Thanks for the info==will contact them tomorrow. My poor ol' 1987
program has provisions for recompiling or recalulating in case of
erroneous data, but guess they never anticipated that , unlike stocks,
indexes would ever split.. As a last resort, I can save what I have on
disk; start a new chart from 24 Nov and chalk up one for economic
progrss. T.C.
