Tim,

I downloaded the patch this weekend also so, when
I saw your message I checked my symbols especially
the SP which is my primary interest.

The old SPH90 symbol (BMI) has expired which is 
understandable. However, the new SP0H symbol
is also shown expired and not collecting data. SP0M,
SP0U and SP0Z are OK and are collecting. Strange!
Thank you for pointing this out. I probably wouldn't
have noticed it. Let me know if you find any solutions
and I will do the same.

BTW, how is the little guy doing? Keeping you on your
toes? My twins have both started to walk so beyond
trading there is no time for anything else.

Regards,
Ian.

I just found an annoying possibility: While trying to copy
out historical E*mini tick data for someone on the list
here, much to my surprise I see that the TS server has now
marked all but the current front month contracts and those
that come later in time as expired. All of my contracts are
marked for saving 2500 trading days before marking them as
expired. 

I diligently cleaned and polished my hard drive and
installed the patch this past weekend. I did keep a mirror
backup of everything...but before I think about that, is
anyone else experiencing this? And if it has been marked
expired [Boy, it sure looks expired], is the data gone from
the 'active' copy of the server?

Best,
