Well, Randy for the purpose of the trial, it doesn't care what country one is located. I understand that one thing is just to retrieve the data and other different one is to use the data for financial purposes.

Could you please just select Luxembourg - Professional investor?

I was trying to use your RCHGetTableCell function. But it gets no data because it shows the disclaimer page in http://www.fundinfo.com/en/universe/. How can I let Excel know that it has to select one country and click on "I hereby confirm..."?

I tried to visit first this address http://www.fundinfo.com/en/universe/?displayUniverse=LU-prof&disclaimerAccepted=true, trying to fill the POST form with GET stuff, but i can not make it work.

Could you please take a look on that?

I had no trouble accessing the data...for example:

=RCHGetTableCell("http://www.fundinfo.com/en/search/?q=domicile:FR
",8,"FR0010925594")

...returned the NAV of the fund. Have you not visited the above URL using
the EXCEL Web Query process or IE? You need to create the security cookie
that says you have "logged in" for the disclaimer. Otherwise, you'll
constantly get the disclaimer page when you try that URL.

The last I heard, MSN was posting the previous day's closing price as "Last
Price", so it's probably not what you want anyway. I would suggest using
the RCHGetYahooQuotes() function instead.

In any case, you probably need to update your MSN element definitions to
get rid of the "Error" result. See:

I think you just need to use Yahoo's ticker symbol -- RDS-B

Randy,
Is there any way to download the Beta for a large list of stocks?
Thanx,
Jay

Easiest way would probably be FinViz -- check out the FinViz entries in the
LINKS area of the group.

But it may make a difference on what value of beta you want -- some sites
have 1-year, some 3-year, and others 5-year. And I think there are sites
that give you the correlation/beta based on any time period you choose.

Thanks.

It seems to be flaky because it started to work again after I posted this message and now its back to showing an error (although i'm logged in on IBD through IE). BTW, what is 'excel web query dialog'? Can you point me on how to do this 'preferred' method?

Keyboard shortcut is alt+d+d+w. It brings up the IE object that EXCEL uses.
Usually this matches the version of th external browser version of IE, but
not always. That why I say the EXCEL Web Query dialog is preferred.

Note that you can only be logged in from one browser/object at a time. Most
of the time, IBD logs you out of an existing session if you start up a new
session with a different program.

These don't work for you?

=RCHGetYahooHistory("MMM")
=RCHGetYahooHistory("MMM",,,,,,,,,,1)

pDim1 and pDim2 are there so you can override the size of the array
returned. They're used on advanced applications of the function and VBA
usage of the function. The default is that they are set to the size of the
range you are array-entering the function over.

There aren't many elements for Reuters data. Pretty much just the
Reuters ratios web page. Check the elements definition workbook that is
distributed within the add-in ZIP file to see the elements that have
been defined.

For the data that is available from Reuters and Yahoo, you'd need to
visit their web sites. Almost anything on them is extractable with one
function or another. The templates in the files area just show which web
pages I've created examples for.

PS: In the future, please post all add-in questions to the Yahoo group.

With Yahoo data, there are many element #'s which retrieve various data.
Is there something similar with Reuters?

Thanks and regards, Andrew
