| Audobon - Yes, that is still the case. But there really isn't a need to download it more than once a day. Unless you have a monster of a server, you won't be able to process the data more than once a day. My app takes about 12 to 15 hours to loop through all of the combinations and split the master file up (686 unique tables get built... this is for performance. I couldn't build an index on a 185 million record table... don't have the disk space and it would take 3 days to build the index!). You couldn't possibly be 100% accurate on the data unless you had direct access to the source. But once a day gives you probably 99% accuracy...
