Last week, I did upgrade ver 5.11 to ver 6.52 and I do not have a problem.
I did test the datapane in
the Downloader ver 4.11 before the upgrade. I typed in 01/03/2000 and got
the same message you
received: "the data was not in chronological order and do you want to edit"
This told me that ver 4.11 of the downloader was indeed not Y2K
compatable. It was at that point that I installed the ver 6.52 upgrade
from the CD that Equis had sold me for the very fair price of $10.00.
Perhaps if you went into the ver 6.52 downloader and manually entered a
date in any security, like
1/04/2000 and then entered some prices in each cell, then closed the
datapane, and if the program did accept the manually entered data, this
would indicate that the MS program is not at fault, and the problem would
rest with Worden Brothers.
Since you are obviously having a very fustrating experience, why have you
NOT used the CD that you have? It surely gave me no problems, and I ain't
overly bright when it comes to computers and software.
Now that the trading day is over, many on this list will assist you if you
have any furthur problems.
