Would it be (or is it) possible to save news desk items as plain text instead of csv?.

I'm a bit confused by the question. You can save the list of headlines
as a csv file (which is essentially just a text file with a different
file extension.. so just change the extension when saving it).
The articles themselves are PDF files. The ASX doesn't provide a plain text version of the articles anymore - so we can't provide it. But you may be able find a third party program to convert it though. |

To clarify a bit, if you select Actions - News - Newsdesk then select
Business news as the news service, you can then click on a headline
which will pop up a text window, as opposed to a pdf reader window. If
you then select save, the file extension to save is CSV, where I think
it should be TXT. I changed the extension to txt but the formatting was
all over the place. A minor problem but still annoying.
This (business news and ferret) is one of those hidden Bullcharts gems Thanks |

Ahh.. yep. I forgot about the business news articles. Ok, that's been fixed now, and will take effect immediately.
