[amibroker] Re: Data base problems

Jayson,

I'm not consciously running more than one instance of AB. I say this 
because I have now un-installed/re-installed AB dozens of times, who 
knows what is going on in the ether which resides in my computer...

If I set up my system to load all securities into one large database 
(with several watchlists to seperate the different groups of shares) 
I seem to be able to avoid the problem.
If I then add a new database and change between the two, I lose 
the 'Report' function and sometimes the 'Help' system. Also from that 
poijnt on, if I try to change database again the directory 
highlighted in the 'Open Directory' dialogue box is always 'Temporary 
Internet Files' instead of 'Amibroker'.

Strange and very annoying...

Steve
