Can we download un-adjusted stock price under DEX2 COM API
Hi team, using Excel VBA and DEX2 COM API, is it possible to download un-adjusted historical stock price?
I am trying "Adjusted:0" in either "Request Parameters" and "Display Parameters" and no luck. Any thoughts?

I suspect you're using TR.PriceClose field, which does not provide unadjusted price history. Use TR.CLOSEPRICE instead:
Public Sub GetUnadjustedPriceHistory()
If oDEX2Mgr Is Nothing Then
Set oDEX2Mgr = CreateReutersObject("Dex2.Dex2Mgr")
Set oDEX2MgrADC = oDEX2Mgr
lCookie = oDEX2MgrADC.Initialize(DE_MC_ADC_POWERLINK)
End If
Set oRData = oDEX2Mgr.CreateRData(lCookie)
oRData.InstrumentIDList = "AAPL.O"
oRData.FieldList = Array("TR.CLOSEPRICE(Adjusted=0)")
oRData.RequestParam = "SDate=0 EDate=-1Y Frq=D"
oRData.DisplayParam = "CH:Fd RH:Date"
oRData.Subscribe False
End Sub
Alex, thanks. That works!
Curious, what's the exact difference between TR.PriceClose and TR.ClosePrice, in the context of DEX2 COM API. Say I have a few dozen stock tickers and I am downloading their historical prices, which field is preferred? Many thanks.
