Re: Switching datafeeds / sever Tick data question, help

I changed from Signal Plus Cable receiver to PC Qoute.  Most of my symbols
were automatically converted.  To the best of my memory, I had a few "cash"
and "indices" that didn't convert correctly.  Also, I had to enter a few
symbols by hand.  All in all it wasn't any great big, tedious chore.

David
