Dear Prather,
this seemed to be a good reason, but trying it out, it did not solve the problem. I have increased the array a lot, such that I have some 2400 rows empty at the lower end of the table. Nevertheless, everyday the last date is pushed back to the past, now it is already back on the 24/05/2013, while it was on the 02/05/2013 last time before updating. ... very strange.
If you had any idea, I would be happy.

You will need to contact yahoo. It appears to be their problem.
I tried retrieving PETR4.SA 5/2/2013 to 1/1/2005 it retrieved all values
correctly
When I tried LAME.SA 5/2/2013 to 1/1/2005
It looks like it retrieved most correctly but failed on dates older than

Good news and I hope it will stay this way. When I opened my spreadsheet today, I saw today's closing price. Wonderful! Now I feel relieved and can see what other data I can play with as a dividend investor.
Thank you, Randy.

Hi Randy,
When I try using the GuruFocus dashboard template, I get data in the the 'Per Share Data' and 'Ratios39; rows.
However all rows below that from the 'Income Statement' onwards return an Error.
Can you please revisit the GuruFocus dashboard template in the RCHGetTableCell samples section of this forum and check whether you get the same?

Unfortunately, they've changed all of the financial statements data to be
dynamically displayed, so the data isn't in the source code of the web page
for the add-in to extract.

Based on one of your templates below,
I tried to collect data from this URL:
http://www.screener.in/company/?q=500530
I thought I could pick up one, I could probably make some headway with the
other elements (including 10 year data given here but alas!
This is the source data for Market cap <p class='span439;>Market
Cap: <b><span
class="WebRupee">Rs.</span> 27806.90 Crores</b></p>
They have introduced a symbol for the Rupee which has thrown me off
completely.
Here's what I tried to write ignoring the symbol for rupees:
=smfConvertData(smfGetTagContent("http://www.screener.in/company/q=500530 ","'span439;=""Market
Cap:""")) <http://quotes.morningstar.com/stock/c-header?&t=MMM >
Which gave an "Error"
Can somebody give me a start? I'd like to make a template for this URL, and
pull in data.
Thanks in advance
