Website other than Bloomberg to extract Stock Market figures?

Is there any other website that can be used for extracting Stock Market Figures? We've been using Bloomberg since but for some reason (must have been an update on their website), today we are having an error extracting those tables.

Many Thanks

Hi Jarlee,

You can search for any stock related sites, find the historical rates or a page that has a table that can be used to either make a table or graph and then manipulate it within Qlikview.

How to do it, get the address of the site, click on Web Files, enter the address in the Internet file and follow the wizard. You can use Enable Transformation Step to rename headers or remove non-essential lines and use a cross tab and you are done. View example below.

e.g.

QUALIFY *;

UNQUALIFY Date;

AORD:

LOAD Date,

    Open,

    High,

    Low,

    Close,

    Volume,

    [Adj Close*]

FROM

[https://au.finance.yahoo.com/q/hp?s=%5EAORD]

(html, codepage is 1252, embedded labels, table is @10, filters(

Remove(Row, RowCnd(CellValue, 1, StrCnd(start, '*')))

));
