Getting data on Industries



PureBytes Links

Trading Reference Links

I use Telescan for my EOD data downloading.  I'm trying to set up a folder
containing data on industries.  Attached is a list of the industries from
Telescan's web site.

(Telescan's web site URL for industries:
http://www.tscn.com/wsc/Industry_Group_Analysis.html?Symbol=&Button=RANKINGS
&template=http://www.wallstreetcity.com/industry/template/TPL_industry_teles
can_rankings.asp )

When I tried to bring the symbols (**just** the symbols, of course, and not
descriptions) into the downloader, Metastock seemed to have a problem
recognizing them as industry symbols --- just a few it 'recognized,' but
thought these few were stocks.

Does anyone know what I may be doing wrong?  Perhaps I need to reformat the
individual symbols some way?

Thanks for your help.

Nicholas
