IsSymbolValid always returns 1

[cosgrove]

Hello All,
Whenever I call to IsSymbolValid() the return value is always "1" even when the symbol is nonsense.
For Example:
int iValid = eSignal.IsSymbolValid("MSFTTTTT");

always returns a "1" when is should be returning "0".

Do I need to make another call for this symbol prior to checking validity?

Thanks,
-tomas

This is a bug that our Developers and Product Managers are aware of and working to resolve. I have not yet received an ETA on a new build of the Data Manger which will correct the problem.

Please PM your contact information and when a new DM is available I can contact you directly.

Tomas,

UPDATE;

Whenever I call to IsSymbolValid() the return value is always "1" even when the symbol is nonsense.

Over the next week we'll be rolling out the new DM version that corrects the IsSymbolValid issue that was reported.

isSymbolValid is linked to the CUSIP entitlement. To use the isSymbolValid function users would need to have the CUSIP entitlement as part of their service.

To add this entitlement please contact our Client Service and they will add the service for you.

Thank you
