Post From: Important Update: "SC Data-All Services" Symbol Cleanup

It is important that when using the new futures symbol format, that all symbols for a particular futures contract are consistently that format including symbols you are using in sub instances.

After changing the symbols you need to reconnect to the data feed:
File Menu: Procedure to Reconnect to the Data and Trade Servers

We made some improvements to the Edit >> Translate Symbols to Current Service function to ensure the translation is always to the new symbol format and avoiding mistaken translations, and to also translate the Intraday File Update List symbols. The only case of a mistaken translation that we are aware of involves the symbol GER30 where it would be translated to a Eurodollar (GE) futures symbol. This has been prevented and is in the latest prerelease 2181.
