STK_CONV converts CIM stock files into individual comma separated
value files which can then be easily imported into Microsoft Excel
and other spreadsheets or databases. For example, if you
downloaded stock quotes for IBM, LOTS and SP 500, to use STK_CONV you
would enter:
STK_CONV 012892.stk 92
where:
012892.stk is the name of the file that the downloaded
stock information was saved in. (In this example
name indicates that the quotes are for January
28, 1992).
92 is the year that the quotes were for.
In this example STK_CONV would read 012892.stk and create three comma
separated value text files: IBM.CSV, LOTS.CSV and SP_500.CSV.
If these files already exist STK_CONV will append this quote to the
end of the file.
What's new with Version 3.1 3/06/93 20:00
Version 3.1 introduced a "Q" option that allows STK_CONV's output file
to be imported into Quicken. When using the "Q" option, only one
output file (update.csv) is created. If update.csv exists, STK_CONV
will append the new data.
If you wished to create an output file which can be imported into Quicken
you would enter:
STK_CONV 012892.stk 92 q
where:
012892.stk is the name of the file that the downloaded
stock information was saved in. (In this example
name indicates that the quotes are for January
28, 1992).
92 is the year that the quotes were for.
q indicates you wish the files in the Quicken format.
What's new with Version 3.2 5/25/93 20:00
Version 3.2 introduces a "O" option that is similar to the "Q"
option. The only difference is that all fields remain in the
output file (update.csv). If update.csv exists, STK_CONV
will append the new data.
STK_CONV 012892.stk 92 o
where:
012892.stk is the name of the file that the downloaded
stock information was saved in. (In this example
name indicates that the quotes are for January
28, 1992).
92 is the year that the quotes were for.
o indicates you wish one output file containing
all fields.
