Ah, OK, I have yet to see AmiQuote in action (I use REBOL to get my data.).
Does it make new ASCII files by extracting and reformating data from web
sites?

Reimporting years of data is not always an easy option (many exchanges don't
have histories available). As I pointed out, changing tickers only works if we
catch the name change in time, before any data is collected in a new file.
With minor stocks, this can easily go undetected for quite some time, when a
whole exchange is followed. A reliable way of exporting all data from
AmiBroker is needed (as you noted below), in this case.

I'll try, once I get a PC.
As for long Amiga histories, it was always broken. ;^(

Yes, this is what is needed, unless a different method of merging data files
will be made. AmiBroker's capabilities are getting better all of the time. ;^)

Great!

Oops, I must have been sleeping - it's in Krakow/Cracow, which is just as far
away! http://info.cyf-kr.edu.pl/kamera/duzy.html

"Thank you, Elizabeth!" At my age (soon to be 46), I'll take any compliment
thrown my way. ROTFL
As for being fit, I keep in shape, partly by riding my bicycle everywhere
possible (I used to race bicycles & it's also a lifestyle decision thingy...),
and our whole family started learning karate, recently. Wow, I've never
sweated so much without moving anywhere!
We're off to the dojo now.
