This morning (6th) when I started OT and updated OmniScan, the two lists I use are missing hundreds of symbols. The S&P 500 list only has 260 symbols and the S&P 100 list show 47.

In fact looking through the rest of the lists, they all seem to be showing around half the number of stocks that they should be.

Can this be investigated.

Thanks

James

I'm not seeing this, can you please try again & make sure to download on "All OmniScans Lists?

Just updated "All OmniScan Lists". Didn't help. What's interesting is that all that lists have almost exactly half the symbols they should have. Russell 2000 has 1074 stocks, Dow Jones 30 Industrial's has 15 , Standard and Poors 400 Midcap has 182, etc.

Strange, other than reinstalling OmniData/Scan, I currently don't have any other ideas.

1. Custom scans are automatically backed up, but you can make a manual backup to make sure. Just right-click any OmniScan list while inside OmniScan & select List Maintenance.

2. Uninstall OmniScan/OmniData from your Programs list in the Control Panel.

3. Download the latest install from here. It was just updated recently.

4. Open OT & it will prompt to restore your scans, or you can manually restore them later using the List Maintenance function.

5. Run your ToDo List.

Barry,

I was about to reinstall OmniData/Scan when I thought I would give the update one more try this evening. I did and the full number of stocks are now back. Don't know what happened or what changed. I would have thought it was something I did but James in England saw the same thing.
