Dear James,

It is recommended to use OLE automation to retrieve
quotes from AMiBroker.
Alternativelly you can use recently added COM support
to create ActiveX and use it in the AFL formula the way
it is explained in http://www.amibroker.com/newsletter/13-2001.html
Such an object can receive price/volume data from the AFL
formula easily.

As for file format description - it is not available to the public
because it changes from time to time and while AmiBroker
reads directly previous versions of the file format your code
will probably break on different variations.

Best regards,
