Re: [amibroker] Downloader not working

Hello,

1. Go to C:\Program Files\AmiBroker\AmiQuote\Download
and check if .AQH files are there.
2. Open them with Notepad and see if data are there
3. Check if you have aqh.format file in the Formats subdirectory of AMiBroker
4. Check its contents and eventually send me for checking
5. Try to import manually as per instructions given in the user's guide
6. If you ever restored data directory from CD ROM check the "read-only" flag of data files
    in AmiBroker database. They must not be read-only. 
   If they are you have to mark all files in the data directory and all subfolders and
   UNMARK read only flag.
   Next time if you make a copy on CD better ZIP the files before copying and you won't get
   this problem
