RE: Compuserve

Do we have a resolution to the Internet access problem with regard to
CompuServe?

By the way, CompuServe does provide opening prices for futures and has since
we have subscribed from way before the MS for Windows days.

I don't know how I missed it, but I don't remember seeing anything about
CompuServe data being available via the Internet.

Thanks

Guy

On July 1, 1999 CompuServe changed their Internet access port and the
Internet logon required without advance warning to us.  The address is
not a problem but the logon requirement will not allow automated
collections which is what The DownLoader does.  We are waiting for an
answer to our request for an automated means of logging on.

CompuServe does not supply open prices, never has.

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
