I am cross posting this in case someone here is having same problem:

Sorry for posting here but seems the most experts on this hang out here.

I've been using Excel Stock Quote add in for several months in an Excel
worksheet. Mostly stock quotes but 8-9 options quotes as well. Everything
working fine until today when 4 of the options refuse to update at all. The
corresponding stock price updates no problem as do all other quotes. But
these options quotes are either wrong or not updating at all. I've made no
changes.

Anyone seeing anything else where that might account for this weirdness?

options quotes are for AAPL, ATLS, C

Options symbol format has changed.
For example the Apple chain:

With a specific example of
.AAPL\10D17\90.0
