Hi,
 
Currently AmiBroker you can not use ASCII importer 
for the file without quotation data (only names). You need
a script for this.

Folks,
 
I set up an ASXTickerNames.format as 
follows
 
$FORMAT Ticker,Fullname$SKIPLINES 
0$SEPARATOR ,$DEBUG 1$BREAKONERR 1$AUTOADD 0$OVERWRITE 1 

 
and imported a cut down version of TNIS.txt with 
only Ticker and fullname (attached) but I get an error as follows. I used 
Excel to only import the first two fields and then saved as a .csv file, 
renamed it .txt and then tried the import.
 
BROKER caused an invalid page fault inmodule

Are there some funny names in the file which 
Amibroker does not like for some reason ? I can't see a problem with the 
format file.
 
Any help appreciated. 
 
Thanks,
 
Geoff

Now I know of that postingarea I have posted (TNIS.zip) the csv file I 
made from the ASX listing inearly Nov. ! It has the format 
<tic>,<full name>,<activity>,<sector #> . Itis 
sorted on <sector #> so that smaller sector specific files can be 
splitoff as can <tic>,<full name>,<sector #> 
etc.Even following Tomasz's instructions to delete earlier 
broker.database Ihave not got the files to load as I 'intuitively' 
expected they would : the<tic><full name> get in OK (after 
industries.js) so all the stocks are 'fullnamed' and graph properly, but 
I still have to make manual 1-1 linkagesbetween sector and (simplified - 
ie  no 'activity' description in the'industries, field) 
industry  in Stock -> categories and Stock -> 
organiser.Could you please step through the actions you would ake to 
make abroker.database of, say simply, the companies in your gold01.txt 
file andsay (make that 'write' :-) ) what you'd expect to see in Stock 
-> categoriesand Stock -> organiser.CheersFred 
Browneps I hope this is not a big imposition ... if it is just 
ignore it :-)
