Hi Ton

Here's one for your "well-prepared patcher" file.

Walter,

First of all, Thank You for taking the time to send the file in to us,
so we can find the problem and get it  handled. The more that I
investigated this problem, the stranger the results. I can now see the
issues that you seeing (showing the last bar with the first date values,
etc.) and have passed the files on to the programmers to find out what
the exact problem is. As soon as they get some information, they will
pass it to me, and in turn I will forward the information to you. The
only work-around for now is to delete the rows with Holiday in the
fields.

As soon as I hear from them, I'll email you again.

Thank you for your patience,
Lynn

I found that 10 or 11 "new" fund charts that only have 3 weeks of
manually
loaded data and without holidays,  work fine.

I open a "new" file of "Metals & Minerals" in Downloader and called it
"M&M"
and copied data from today back to Dec. 1, 1998 (3.5 months). It
produced a
flat line chart.

Then I went into the data and deleted all of the rows that were
holidays.
Everything worked fine!

So obviously the problem was to do with the "32767" holiday lines of the
file.

Hope that this helps.

Walter
