Nope. Just got off the phone and they don't offer what I'm after. But I think I didn't make myself clear in the original message as to what that is.

I can create the application (which is what WebMethods does supply), but I don't have the data source. I want access to Stock Quote DATA for my Company (preferably) in XML format. I will then take the data and transform it into a portion of our Internet/Intranet webpages.

I was thinking that this type of data would be a perfect candidate for XMLizing (new verb). We would then subscribe to a particular data stream (for our company, maybe the competitors, etc.) and reformat it for our own uses.

Any further information would be appreciated. Otherwise, I will continue to place the "bug" in the ear of companies which provide Stock Quote information on their own websites!

BTW, It is silly to continue this conversation under the wrong topic. How do you start a new thread/topic? Why isn't there a link on the top which allows me to do that?
