To those of you who download 9500 symbols and decided to reduce... Why did
you decide to reduce the collection... Was it time consuming or was it a
space issue... did you through the internet to download or a vendor's 28.8
connection... Has anyone tried to use Automate to automate dialing into
internet and starting downloader at the same time... Did you do the
download every night or just a few times a week... Are you getting
Telescan or Reuter data... When you did an exploration on 10,000
symbols... How did you get it to capture only 1% or a low percentage...
