This is using MetaStock 6.52
I made a test to download data from Compuserve on the PRGN Nasdaq stock
quote history.
I have the following 2 problems with DLWin, while trying to download data
from Compuserve (direct Compuserve download from full downloader).
1- If I connect to Compuserve through the Internet (for instance using
Compuserve in PPP mode), and select 'Internet' as the 'Compuserve network',
it does not work: the downloader fails while trying to log on the Compuserve
network.
2- If I connect using the standard CIS network, it works fine except that...
I do not have the opening prices! (opening price is set to closing price).
Have other list members had similar problems using Compuserve.
Any help appreciated
Thank you
Laurent Gittler
