Yes, it may in
fact work because it is a different DATASOURCE from history
bank.
TO use either
source, you need 2 rows in the universe.mdb Future table which resides in your
Universe subdirectory.
You can edit it
in MS Access !

HistoryBank symbol for Dow Jones Mini
M. Simms:
As I re-read your comments I realize that I have no concept
what to do. I get my data from e-signal, for what that is worth. But, I am at
a loss on how to access the Universe.mdb data base. I download
other symbols from HistoryBank without any problems. I have the
Dow Jones future index in my Global Server, but apparently this is not
enough. I appreciate your assistance but frankly am at a loss to
do as you suggest. I will be going online with real time data next week
and possibly the YM will take when I connect to e-signal again.

Did you
insure there is a row in the FUTURE table in the Universe.mdb database as
well ?
Note: The
keys to this table are: symbol, datavendor, exchange. ALL MUST MATCH THE
IMPORT DATA SOURCE !

You are
probably missing a row with the proper datavendor number that associates
with the "History Bank" data source.
<FONT color=#0000ff

Typical
datavendor numbers are:
<FONT color=#0000ff
size=2>15,56,55,0,1,2,4,5,127
I believe the
History Bank is either 55 or 56.
Keep in mind,
all of this technical information is largely undocumented, and no longer
available from the original vendor who no longer supports
TS2000i.
Also,
remember, that any OMZ or XPO file that you use as an import source, has a
particular datavendor number stored in the header of that
file.
If you
attempt to import to a data vendor you do not have stored as associated with
the symbol to be imported,
you will get
no data imported.

I did all this, added the symbol and the contract
date in the Symbol Portfolio. When I download, the Global Server indicates
that it is downloading data, but when I go to the edit data, its states
"no data available. Is there a file that can be accessed that will show
whether any data has been downloaded?
Many thanks for your help.
John

John - you must add a record to the SymbolTranslation
table in theTranslator.mdb database that resides in your Universe
subdirectory.Just clone another CBOT symbol in the table and change
the symbol to YM.Otherwise, you won't be able to add it no matter
what the data source.> -----Original Message----->
