Stock Historical Data - Yahoo Finance CSV

[Milton Stern]

Thank you David and Mr. Ralls,

David, the info was helpful. However, I noted "Some knowledge of perl and
python is required.".
If I was still in my programming days and I had time to test it on a test
platform, I might consider giving it a try.

But given my current restraints, I guess I will have to go without (ie Mr.
Ralls, for the common user you are right.)

Thanks again,

Moshe

And if I am only for myself, what am I?
If not now when? (Avot 1:14)
