Hi Kurt,

Yes, it is easier then the directions if you know how to install script, etc...

Lol this is one of the reasons I jumped in on that BANs thread in the WF.

There are some people who don't know anything about script installations, that's understandable. It's the ones that are lazy and don't try that I don't get.

In here it's a bit different because people wan to learn nd grow. At least I think. If not then they can use your instructions to learn.

To answer your question ...

I have most of mine set up to run once a day.

I do a query at ebay advanced search for listings posted in the last 7 days, then have them set to update them once a day. I've been known too to let them go for 2-3 days because they will eventually update to the listings for that specific day. But that's mainly for testing.

However, they do overlap and show listings that have expired early in the day.

I didn't know the feeds did this until after that post in the WF.

Btw, I may not be saying that right. Hope it makes sense ...

Mary
