When Amibroker makes a stock split from Yahoo EOD data, all the volume 
prior to the stock split is WRONG??

Please correct me,  but apparently Yahoo NYSE/NASDAQ EOD data has a 
strange twist:  OHLC are not split adjusted,  while V (and AdjCl) ARE 
split adjusted!  

I'll use Urban Outfitters as an example:

The 21sep05 O,H,L,C,V,aC data from URBN.aqh, unchanged from Yahoo:

21-Sep-05,51.31,52.90,49.80,52.47,6874200,26.24.

Checking newspaper the OHLC are correct, but is _2x_ the actual volume 
for that day.

When I import URBN.aqh into Amibroker,  it splits 2:1 on 26-Sep-05, 
adjusts all the OHLC prior to that date downward by /2 (ok), and the V 
upward by *2 (not ok!) -  leaving us with 13,745,780 volume that day. 
The other days pre split follow this error.

Can we over-ride the Volume part of the split function somehow?
