I downloaded a symbol file with date of about Aug 19. In it is the symbol CRR*:

CRR CARBO CERAMICS INC NYSE
CRR* CARBO CERAMICS INC NYSE
CRRB CARROLLTON BANCORP NMS

When submitting it as a watch symbol, your system does not respond with data or with an error message.

In the Aug 26 symbol download, I see it is removed. I'm just pointing this out as it took a while to figure out which symbol was causing me errors in one of my 'simultaneous download' scenarios.

------------------

One item that DOES need fixing is that the symbol DJCDXEM.X is not formatted properly in the symbol file. It bleeds onto the second line:

DJCDXEM.X DOW JONES CDX EMERGING MARKETS INDEX
