This is a recent message posted by Gary Lyben giving his best estimate
on when data will be available.   At one time there was a specific
E-Mail address for reporting errors in data.  But now it seems like most
people use this mail group to report data errors.

Hello -

We have switched to a different datavendor. There will now be 2 end of
day files, the first (Preliminary) about 5:15 to 5:30 EST, and the
second (Final) one about 7:30 to 8PM.

The preliminary file will be missing a few equity prices, and a lot of
mutual fund prices. These will be updated in the final file.

You can determine which one you have by viewing the market report. It
will be marked Preliminary or Final.

Right now, there are a few indexes that are missing, these will be
corrected in a day or 2.

This lets the east coast users get started a little earlier than before.

Best regards,

Gary Lyben,

Subject: [quotes-plus] New QP3 User
 
Hello: this is my first post since joining this group. I just signed up
for
QP3 after literally 8 to 10 years of TC2k data.

The program seems imposing (because I am new to it) although its primary
purpose is to feed data to Amibroker. Still, the many views and filters
are
interesting and deserve some digging into.

My first question concerns what is the earliest time to download the
days
data, and is this a reliable, repeatable time?

It seems to take forever to update whatever is updating (TC2k was a lot
faster at updating), and it also seems to take over my processor as
other
tasks bog down while the hard drive is clicking away. So, I would like
to
download or update early, say during dinner if data is available that
early.

A related question is does the program tell you that the data is not
ready
yet, or does it just plow thru downloading yesterdays data and
overwriting
everything that had already been downloaded?

Still another related question is: what is the procedure for notifying
the
owner about any data problems (either incorrect data or a corrupted
database, etc).

Sorry for asking such basic stuff, but I hope you take pity and let me
know
or point me to a place where such answers might exist.

Thanks much,

Ken
