... Such as this:

<ticker>,<date>,<open>,<high>,<low>,<close>,<vol> AAU,20070101,2.25,2.25,2.25,2.25,0 ACU,20070101,14.41,14.41,14.41,14.41,0 ACY,20070101,6.46,6.46,6.46,6.46,0 ADK,20070101,2.8,2.8,2.8,2.8,0 AE,20070101,30.11,30.11,30.11,30.11,0

If I can use the ticker in the file header, can it lead-off or must it be elsewhere?

Please advise.

Thanks.

Brian

Hi,

The order should not matter, but <Name> is not supported in DownLoader 15 conversions. The only way to convert with a name is from the filename itself, such as CSCO#Cisco.csv.

We have written up a suggestion to have a Name field added to CSV conversions, but I do now know if/when such an addition might be made at this time. For multiple-symbol conversions, there is not a way to convert with a Name, the Ticker will be placed in both the Symbol and Name fields.
