Thanks Gary, I did download the next day and found the error corrected.
I am curious to know what caused the error, if this error has ever happened in the past (I personally have never seen it as a daily QP user for over 4 years), and what are the chances of this error ever happening again in the future. The reason I ask is this error caused all our trading software to go haywire for a day. We were unable to trade. As a systems developer for a hedgefund with over 100 clients I need to know if there is any chance something like this will happen in the future so I can code ahead some emergency procedures for such an event.
