On their website, Equis refreshes the "65symbol32.exe" file every 1-15th of each month .
This file contains the up-to-date "Symbol32.dta" file, wich consists of all the
symbols/tickers available in the Downloader(SymbolLookUp), so the complete
updated SP500's underlay-stocks then ought to be updated and listed too.

Below is some old related correspondence send on earlier to the List.

Thanks again, Doc. 
The self-extract file 65symbol32.exe (dated 1/14/98, 497,518 bytes) extracted
Symbol32.dta (dated 1/14/98, 2,677,240 bytes) to the C:\Equis\Dlwin folder.

Thanks too for entering the suggestion, this will end receiving error messages,
and one is able to find out more detailed info on his securities. 

For future updating, link to Equis-TechSupp-site
