What is the best practice for updating Index DataSets? I just created a new Yahoo DataSet using the S&P 100 Index. 4 of the 100 listed stocks are no longer on the index (BNI, MER, WB & WYE).

Last time the Yahoo! classification was updated was in 2008, that explains the result. Please create a support ticket.

OK, but shouldn't these dynamic index lists be updated at the data provider's (Yahoo) end?
When I create a new DataSet using Yahoo! Finance as the Data Provider and select the "symbols from predefined classification groups" option ... is the listing of available groups from the left side "Sectors" and "Index" categories:
-- A.) a dynamic listing updated at the Yahoo server and refreshed from that source using the REFRESH CLASSIFICATION button, or
-- B.) hard coded as a static listing within Wealth-Lab or obtained from the Wealth-Lab website?

Sorry if I was not clear.
1. We have not updated the Y! classification file since 2008 on the server. Nobody (but me) requested it before you.
2. Please create a ticket and the task will be assigned to the developer.
Hope this helps.

Accepted and passed on to the respective technician.
Please note that it may take a while (he's been busy with a high-priority project).
