Logical pages #39

Open billr916 opened 6 years ago

Hi, I'm looking at data contained within large pages (FIDs) ROW80_1 - ROW80_25. Update messages only seem to contain data with no meta data for the character offset into the ROW for the update.

The pages I'm looking at are pretty static so I can snap them, but just wondered if there was another option.

Thanks,

In retrospective, Page data represented in ROW80_xx FIDs are used to display on Reuters terminal with a so-called Display Template to properly format data into table on screen. You might have another sets of RICs that represent the same Page data in OMM FIDs which is more usable in API. You need to find out the corespondent RIC names from Thomson Reuters if they are available.

We have a client who uses Eikon to view the bank bills rates on Eikon (which displayed in tabular format) but use different set of RICs when using PyRFA to incorporate the data into their own workflow.
