Bob; What I had missed, which is documented in the manual (note to
self: RTFM, carefully this time), is that the password must be the
CODED password. Peter's documentation clearly outlines how to get
that info, and he answered my e-mail on a SATURDAY, politely even
though I had missed it in the manual. Never got that kind of support
from anyone else.
Now I'm trying to figure out how to build a year's worth of intraday
history by downloading several months of 5-minute data on a number of
stocks, when the Quote.com server has a limit of 500 quotes
(records?). Still working on that, but I'm open to any pointers from
anyone who has done it.
