Hello TS,
The problem arises when the plug in starts loading the
symbols from the global server. I haven't found anyway to
control the loading order and it just loads the first 500
it finds and then stops. In the 500 loaded are a lot of
expired futures and since it stops at 500 it doesn't get to
the others I need. If it would load all of them I could
then select the ones I wanted to update. But it won't even
load them to give me the choice.
If the above issue is solved, that would bring up the
second issue which is it doesn't save my selection so each
time I do a download I would have to select the ones I
want,very tedious.
