Equity search whole database

Hi guys,

I'm currently doing some financial research which focusing on international equity market. I'm using the data from datastream and try to download as many company as possible (yes, the more, the better).

I'm trying to select a large amount of equities at the same time, say, all US equities. However, the DFO window only show 10 results per page, that means I have to click the "all" and "next page" buttons for thousands of times to include all US equities into my selection.

So my question is: is that a simple way that I could select all equities in the same time, or is that at least a way to include a lot more numbers of reults per page through DFO search?

Thank you very much!

Hi @QCguy

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but the way I read your question is that you're using Datastream for Office GUI rather than any Thomson Reuters APIs. This is a developer community forum intended for software developers using Thomson Reuters APIs. The best way to get the answer to your question is to contact Thomson Reuters Support by either calling Thomson Reuters Helpdesk number in your country or using Contact Us capability in Thomson Reuters product you use.
