I have a spread*** that does a Data/Import External Data/Web Query to get
data from my Yahoo stock portfolio. It has worked for years. On January
31,
Yahoo made a change to their web page and my query stopped working with
the
following message: "Unable to open http://finance.yahoo.com/p?v&k=pf_1.
The
internet site reports that a connection was established but the data is
not
available." I have redone the query with the same results.
Interestingly, I
can query other tables on Yahoo, just nothing on their finance page. I
tried
MSN and also got the same results from a stock portfolio I set up there.
Yahoo fianance's response was they they don't know what the problem is but
it
isn't anything at their end so they can't/won't do anything. I really
rely
on this feature and it's absence is hurting. Anyone got any ideas? Carl
