RE: [RT] HistoryBank symbol for Dow Jones Mini

Yes, it may in 
fact work because it is a different DATASOURCE from history 
bank.
TO use either 
source, you need 2 rows in the universe.mdb Future table which resides in your 
Universe subdirectory.
You can edit it 
in MS Access !

  As I re-read your comments I realize that I have no concept 
  what to do. I get my data from e-signal, for what that is worth. But, I am at 
  a loss on how to access the Universe.mdb data base.  I download 
  other symbols from HistoryBank without any problems.  I have  the 
  Dow Jones future index in my Global Server, but apparently this is not 
  enough.  I appreciate your assistance  but frankly am at a loss to 
  do as you suggest. I will be going online with real time data next week 
  and possibly the YM will take when I connect to e-signal again.

    Did you 
    insure there is a row in the FUTURE table in the Universe.mdb database as 
    well ?
    Note: The 
    keys to this table are: symbol, datavendor, exchange. ALL MUST MATCH THE 
    IMPORT DATA SOURCE !
    <FONT color=#0000ff 
    size=2> 
    You are 
    probably missing a row with the proper datavendor number that associates 
    with the "History Bank" data source.
    <FONT color=#0000ff 
    size=2> 
    Typical 
    datavendor numbers are:
    <FONT color=#0000ff 
    size=2>15,56,55,0,1,2,4,5,127
    I believe the 
    History Bank is either 55 or 56.
    Keep in mind, 
    all of this technical information is largely undocumented, and no longer 
    available from the original vendor who no longer supports 
    TS2000i.
    Also, 
    remember, that any OMZ or XPO file that you use as an import source, has a 
    particular datavendor number stored in the header of that 
    file.
    If you 
    attempt to import to a data vendor you do not have stored as associated with 
    the symbol to be imported,
    you will get 
    no data imported.

      HistoryBank symbol for Dow Jones Mini
          I did all this, added the symbol and the contract 
      date in the Symbol Portfolio. When I download, the Global Server indicates 
      that it is downloading data, but when I go to the edit data, its states 
      "no data available. Is there a file that can be accessed that will show 
      whether any data has been downloaded?
          Many thanks for your help.
          John

        John - you must add a record to the SymbolTranslation 
        table in theTranslator.mdb database that resides in your Universe 
        subdirectory.Just clone another CBOT symbol in the table and change 
        the symbol to YM.Otherwise, you won't be able to add it no matter 
        what the data source.> -----Original Message----->
