Filemaker stockmarket quotes

[jeffe]

Hi everyone,

I was wondering if any-one could help.

Im going to create a free for all and open source

End of day Yahoo and google stockmarket qoutes downloader

I do know there is one available at the moment

http://www.swconsulting.com/whatwedo/filemaker/index.asp

I would like to design a new system with the option of downloading

From yahoo or google or other websites for that matter.

Is this possible and could you please provide an example file on

How to retreive from yahoo.

Thanks jeffe

Hi All,

I have started the project,

As mentioned, I would really appreciate it if someone could tell me how to

download and extract the data from Yahoo.

The same way it is done, as Steve Wilmes has created his file but from yahoo instead.

Thanks jeffe

Oops,

I forgot to attach the file.

[jeffe]

Hi Shermund,

The project is going really well. I have decided to add alot more extra's.

The following will be added...

A) End of day data downloader (Done)

Historical data (Done)

C) Line Charts (Done)

D) Export to Metastock (In Progress)

E) Portfolio Manager (In Progress)

Any many many more features.

I am still wanting someone to please help, as I would like to be able to change this

app to download from yahoo. This is the only part I'm not sure how to change, I have emailed

the original programmer but did NOT hear back from them. So I am begging for someone to please help.

i am trying to have this link automatically published in a table.

http://ichart.finance.yahoo.com/table.csv?s=abbn.vx&d=1&e=19&f=2012&g=d&a=3&b=12&c=2011&ignore=.csv
