I would like to create a database and fill it with data and these data will not have a relationship to any symbol.

Is this possible?

Can you please provide a sample of the data and how you intend to use this data?

Well I want to create a database with DOW stocks based on their inclusion date

So the fields will be From_Date, To_Date, Symbol_List

Symbol_list will contain all 30 symbols in that period with a "-" separator (all concatenated as one string)

Best Answer

What you can do is create a custom database.

- Associate the data with a symbol (example: dow jones index) - Ignore the table for other symbols
- Default date column is associated with "From_Date"
- Create "To_Date" & "Symbol_List" columns
