Datafeed Toolbox

Communicating with a Financial Data Server

The Datafeed Toolbox supports connections to three financial data servers:

• Bloomberg (http://www.bloomberg.com)
• Interactive Data Corporation (IDC) (http://www.idc.com)
• Yahoo (http://www.yahoo.com)

Bloomberg and IDC both require that you install proprietary software on your PC. To connect to Yahoo, you need to have access to the Internet and to install a Web browser. The most commonly used browsers, Microsoft Internet Explorer (http://www.microsoft.com) and Netscape Communicator
(http://www.netscape.com) are available for free download.
