As I've mentioned on various occassions before, at my request Tomasz
has created a DLL called ThCSV Plugin. It's intention originally was
to be able to read CSV-files with data from Thomson Datastream (i.e.
columns of time series beyond OHLCVOI, for example PE, DY, PC, etc.
for stocks, but also Duration, Convexity, etc. for bonds). Works like
a charm.

No doubt it would be useful for others too, since it can read any CSV
if structured in the right format. Ask support for more details.
