To tell the truth you probably don't have to be much of an expert on Datastream Advance to help me out.
I am planning on doing some rather large scale regressions on time series data from different listed companies (primarily dividend adjusted stock prices). Thing is, as far as I can tell, I'm only able to extract data from a mere 10 companies at a time using the multiple time series feature. Ideally I would like to be able to extract data from thousands of companies at a time.
Is there any way of retrieving data from this many, or at least more than ten, companies in one go, using Datastream? I am getting the impression that the excel add-in might do the trick, but have as of yet been unable to figure out how this can be included in excel (it has not appeared in my add-in list).
I'm very thankful for any and all info anyone here can provide me with on the matter, including referring me to a forum where I am more likely to get an answer.
