My experience is very similar - If you download too may stocks (and the
definition of "too many" seems to change daily) they just stop the
download and sometimes the Downloader can't recover and you get to do it
all over again.
BUT WHO ELSE DOES AUTO STOCK SPLIT ADJUSTMENTS AND SYMBOL CHANGES?

Subject: Reuter EOD data downloading problem
Reply-To: metastock@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
I update 400 Canadian and 400 US stocks every day from Reuters. I
frequently have to download twice - Reuters will give me about half the
data then terminate the download without any warning of incompleteness.
Then I have to download a second time to get the rest of the data.
Thankfully they seem to have refrained from using with the dreaded
ID=800 message that results in no update. If you're using Reuters, are
you experience similiar ? I am considering switching data vendor. Just
want to make sure that Reuters is indeed the cause of the problem.
Thanks.
