You can also change the setting from within Excel:

Office Button ==> Excel Options ==> Formulas ==> Workbook Calculation (Manual)

It makes working on a spreadsheet impossible because it takes 30 seconds to re-pull all the data every time I press Enter. In other words, is there a way to make Excel NOT update unless we press F9. (like with the NOW() function). Right now I have to release my IP address while I work on the spreadsheet and then renew my IP address when I am ready to pull the data...

I'm trying to compute the 50-day SMA of a list of equities with:

Range("Y2:Y60") = Application.WorksheetFunction.Average(RCHGetYahooHistory(SelStr, , , , , , , , "a", 0, , , 50, 1))

Here SelStr is dimensioned as a string. I'm getting the error message: Unable to get the Average property of the WorksheetFunction class. Any suggestion as to how to fix this would be appreciated.

Thanks.

I just ran this code and it worked fine:

Sub Test()
Dim SelStr As String
SelStr = "MMM"
Range("B2:B60") =
Application.WorksheetFunction.Average(RCHGetYahooHistory(SelStr, , , , , ,
, , "a", 0, , , 50, 1))
End Sub

However, why you would want to assign a single value to an entire range of
data is beyond me.

SelStr is an array of equities, i.e.,



Portfolio = "BMY,DFE,FBIOX,FCG,GEX,GURU,PGJ,NAVB,IWC"
SelStr = Portfolio

The function only accepts a single ticker symbol.

OK, sorry in advance for 2 pretty questions...

1) I don't get how in the template files "Ticker" works to link the formulae (e.g." =RCHGetElementNumber(Ticker,849)" ) to the actual cell (in most cases, B2). Is there any simple documentation on how this works that i can't currently find? Point me at it if so. Or is it some 'Table&#39; function in Excel i'm ignorant of?

2) I've noticed a number of the Element Numbers are not piping through the data.... particularly Zacks stuff. e.g. in the SMF-Template-Zacks Data.xls file, only 850, 13869, 13870 are coming through. Has this been mentioned in previous comment? Again, if so = point me to it. Thanks a bunch, and as always, thanks Randy for such a cool project.

"Ticker" is just a named range in EXCEL. It can be replaced by any cell
reference. If you want to see the definition of the named range, use
EXCEL's name manager (keyboard shortcut alt+i+n+d). For more info, see:

http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/excel-help/define-and-use-names-in-formulas-HA010147120.aspx

Thanks for the heads up on the Zacks issue. It looks like they changed the
contents of the web page (e.g. the header of one of the sections used to be
"Detailed Earnings Estimates" and is now "Earnings Estimate"). I'll have to
redefine the elements to account for their changes.

Randy, did Zacks change something to their website again?
=RCHGetTableCell("http://www.zacks.com/stock/quote/"&B2,1,"Next Earnings Report Date") returns "ERROR"

The webadress http://www.zacks.com/research/report.php?type=report&t=BA http://www.zacks.com/research/report.php?type=report&t=BA returns an empty page..

Thanks, Marco

Never mind, just change "Next Earnings Report Date" to "Exp Earnings Date"
and it returns the date once again.

The answer is "Yes, they have changed their website again". A lot of the
defined elements no longer work either.

I'm trying to transition RCHGetYahooQuotes to Excel 2013 in my new Windows 8 PC. I have the Stock Market functions file in the SMF Add-In folder in the Program Files. I can't tell if it is zipped or not. It is about 462kb. If it is still zipped, the File Manager only gives me the option to zip it which is where I am now. The Add In does not show up in the list when I go to "Add-Ins" in the "Options" selection in Excel. Any help will be greatly appreciated. I am far from expert on the computer. I have used the Add in in my old Excel almost daily for a long time.

I don't see anything near 462KB.

I'd suggest downloading a new copy of the ZIP file. And you do have to add
it to the add-in manager to use it. You may want to revisit the "overview";
document in the "Documentation" folder in the FILES area of the group. The
installation instructions are there.

I've been using the smfForceRecalculation to get Options quotes for months, and it's worked without fail.

Now, beginning sometime last week it seems not to work.

Has anything changed with Yahoo, or do I need to do anything to get it to retrieve option prices again ??

Thanks

You may want to double-check your Internet Options, and make sure you have
it set to always get new content when visiting a web page.

Otherwise, I need more details on "seems not to work".

I regularly use Randy's great add- in to extract a few elements from Zacks (rank - 848; avg broker rating  - 13885, # analysts - 13887; Industry Rank and Rank in Industry - 851 and 852; eps date - 877; and Average estimate for current quarter - 856).  They all worked fine over the weekend but today are all returning Error - anyone else having this problem.  Any advice?

Fred
