i did a check a few weeks back, not that long ago, and i used freelancer companions companion (FCC) to do a scan of every commodity, apart from ores, and then saved it and converted it to msoffice spreadsheet
it worked fine couple weeks back
i can share the spreadsheet if anyone wants it, as long as you all got a latest(ish) version of excell that uses filters

ok FCC uses companion at the same time, what i did was load disco and then companion, then loaded FCC, it USES companions settings and scans it, it flickers through all the systems grabbing and saving all the commodity prices FROM companion, going from and to where its sold and output into a txt file, i then import it into excel and use filters to find stuff
at the time of me doing it, only a couple of weeks back, it worked fine

Maybe your FCC works very well but it does not solve my initial problem that Freelancer Companion 2.01 no longer works + I am not sure why you are using uppercase letters in your post.

Thanks, didn't know the program is open-sourced.
I did some debugging and it appears the problem is in DynEconDlg.cpp, specificaly lines 256 to 258.
The condition is always true so it would never get past line 258. All logic for the actual data import from the running game is after that, so it just gets skipped.
Commenting out the above 4 lines results in working data import but may have unknown side effects.
I was able to build the program only in Debug configuration. Building it in Release configuration didn't work and I don't have time to try and fix it.
The resulting .exe appeared to work mostly right and started up much faster. Dynamic import also worked. Only problem I noticed is that the tables are not sortable anymore.
Most of these issues are probably because the project appears to be intended for an ancient version of Visual Studio (6.0) and importing it into 2012 wasn't flawless.
Hopefully, someone with more time on their hands can make it work properly.

i used uppercase for FCC for the prog name, other to show how

Wow! As I am not a developer (network administrator actually), I am very impressed. Thank you for your research, I hope it will give ideas to others.

well mate that lot i dont understand, im not a programmer
if you can rebuild it, and make it work, and with ores etc, you would be a hero... i guess
