Here's how you can do it without 
    programming.
     
    
     
    2. in the enter symbols box enter your 
    tickers separated by a comma - click go.
     
    3. You'll get a lost of tickers, names, etc.  On 
    the line "View:" there are a number of links:
    
    
    click the Ticker and Name Link
 
     
    do 
    a mouse down right before the word "Symbol" in the heading of the list 
    and drag it down so that all the tickers and names are selected. release the 
    mouse button. right mouse click ver the hightlighted part of the page 
    and select copy.
     
    4. Open up a blank spreadsheet and paste the contents into 
    it.  now save it to a file.
     
    if 
    you need a script to load these into your db lemme know.
     
    d
    
      Given a symbol list is there a way to extract 
      the full name from Yahoo 
using a script or Excel function?
I 
      would also like to get other information so I can fill out the 
      
information window but full name would 
      do.
Thanks,
Barry
