For $15, 
there's this Excel add-on/DLL with example spreadsheets 
for

The short 
answer is that you'll need to set up a web query to 
Yahoo!
(for 
example) and download the history as needed for each 
stock.
This can 
probably be made to work for up to 100/so issues, but 
after
that it 
will likely become unwieldy. If you want to track, say 5,000 
stocks
you 
really will likely be better off using one of the services 
mentioned.
<SPAN 
class=894455619-21122003>Maintaining a stock database can be a pain, especially 
since Yahoo! seems
to have 
quit split-adjusting its historical data. If you really want to keep 
track
of a few 
thousand stocks, you might find it easier to put the data into 
something
like 
Access(tm), or MySQL, and then run queries using VBA etc. and 
importing
the 
result into Excel. It will be a lot of work to get it 
right.
