Re[2]: Importing futures .xpo data into Global Server with wrong name

[Jimmy Snowden <jhsnowden@xxxxxxx>]

Jimmy,

Sorry error in typing.  Add the symbol that is wrong for your feed to
the GS.  Don't worry about connecting it or not.  Then try importing
the data with Hyperserver online if that is what that program will do.

Maybe that is better said.  Now for another beer.

Best regards,
