Has that been looked into? I'm looking at the download at http://www.dtniq.com/template.cfm?navgroup=supportlist&urlcode=325&view=1 and the file date in the zip file is still shows as it being May. Is this the one that is to be restarted sometime, or is there a different one? Ray

We are still working on the process which updates it. We are hopeful it will be updating again this week. Jay Froscheiser DTN - Trading Markets

We are still working on the .zip process. Thus, instead of mktsymbols.zip, pull mktsymbols.txt. Jay Froscheiser DTN - Trading Markets

I think IE was about to croak on the file as it is kinda huge to put in one page. I coulda used a wget on it from my linux machine but was too lazy to get and copy over to my other drive.

The file should be updated nightly by around 1am central time. Jay Froscheiser DTN - Trading Markets
