CRSP Utilities and program libraries (CUPL)

This software includes utilities that may be used to extract CRSP stock and index data from the CRSP proprietary databases on Linux and Solaris platforms. They also include files necessary for C and Fortran-95 programming for use on Windows platforms as well as Linux and Solaris. The access tools are available with a Developer License.

CUPL may be used to access the CRSP US 1925 and 1962 Stock and Stock with Index Databases.

CUPL is made up of a number of tools used to accomplish four major categories of tasks: creating reports, searches and database inquiries, creating subsets, and moving databases and files across machine types.
