hedemanninvest Copenhagen, Denmark Posts: 4 since Sep 2011 Thanks Given: 1 Thanks Received: 1	Hi traders I'm using NT7 with connection to AMP and Yahoo. From Yahoo I have problems selecting intruments with a dask (-) in the symbol. CARLS-B.CO is working fine. But NZYM-B.CO does not work. NDA-DDK.CO works fine, but ALK-B.CO does not. Anyone know why? Best Regards Torben

You can pull up these symbols directly on Yahoo's website OK?

Do the symbols exist in your Instrument Manager on NT?

When you say "does not work", what exactly do you mean? What is the error message? What happens? What does the log say?
