IB - no daily statements for May 1 and 2

Quote from nitro:


I believe that you are missing a key trick. Try selecting the entire .html document and copying it to the clipboard. Now paste it into Notepad and Presto - text stripped of .html markup!

Also, most word processesors have a paste function called "paste unformatted text." This is found under
Edit-->Paste Special--> Paste Unformatted Text; in Word, WordPad and Word Perfect.

Gee Nitro, when did you figure this out?

Thank You for the great information.
Too much time in front of a computer [youth is wasted on the young :( ]

YW.

There is no symbol but only name/descriptions of the security in the html statement.

Old text statement works better comparing the current html statement, in aspects such as format/layout/clarity. But the html statement should be improved.
 
Here is another problem with the HTML statement, an insufficiency comparing to the good old TEXT statement. In my HTML ***monthly*** statement for April the list of transactions is missing. While the TEXT monthly statement gives me all details in clarity.

IB, please fix this before phase out the TEXT monthly statement.

Thanks.

Huh? Every transaction is there on my monthly or daily statement.

The one thing that I noticed has changed is that the total commission dollars spent is not on the html day or monthly version being generated now. Not sure why that is, I would like to see it. It is not a big deal because when I download the statements into my tax software, the information is displayed there.

No, the transactions are not on my April statement. Hope they will show up the next month if there will be no TEXT format available.

Good point, nitro, no total commissions. And as I inidcated earlier there is no symbols in stock/option transactions.

Thanks.

Cartoosa, I care enough about the other posters to comment:

Text statements are no longer available on the web, only html. For those customers demanding text statements I suggest you download to Word for now. In a week or two there will be a button that automates this process and saves xml statements to text with the click of a button.
I'll also repeat it again: You can download the html statements into excel, word and access. I think 99% of our customers will be able to manage with the change.
Def, When will the XML format be available? They should not cancel the text format before the XML is available. Could you push them on this issue? Thanks in advance.

I tried to import HTML statements into Excel or Access. I am wondering how a user can extract buy/sell orders from HTML statements into a spreadsheet.

This is one area I know little about. I'll pass this along but the best place for you to comment on the statements and make requests is on the IB website under the accounts and statements discussion forum.
