Ralph,

I tried your modified settings and they worked perfectly, including for a
couple of stocks that had never worked before! Many thanks.

On the whole, this method of retrieving data (screen scraping) seems very
unreliable. I'm surprised there is not Web Service for this.

Thanks again.

Regards,

Stephen.
