Hi Shawn, a few ways to get symbols into IRT.
1. can import a text file of the symbols list. maybe do 3 files and NYSE, ALL NASDAQ, ALL AMEX one idea.
2. can use quote sifter, but need live feed for that I believe.
then I use dial data EOD to auto dl bulk quotes at night. works neat.

Hi Mike,
I'm new to Investor/RT and would like to do what you do--scan 10,000 stocks at a go. But how did you get those symbols into the software?
I have a default 45 instruments (stocks) and the instructions tell me I have to type in the rest. I know you didn't do that, did you?
My service is Dial Data end-of-day download. Any help or advice is appreciated.
Thanks,
