[amibroker] TJ - Bruce Hearder or Group : Export.dll Problem



PureBytes Links

Trading Reference Links

I have been trying to use export.dll plugin to convert AQ data to 
Metastock format data into a new program.
The AA and plugin work well and fast, but the data is not formatted 
properly.
I can use plain ASCII-CSV format type in which case the symbol must 
not appear with the data, or there must be a D, before the symbol to 
be Metastock type data.
Please see below, my email to Pattern Forecaster and their response.
Can you help?
Thanks a million if you can! 
Jim

The reply from pattern forecaster:

Jim,

The SYMBOL is causing a problem.  Can you remove it??  If so, then 
the file will load as CSV ASCII YYYYMMDD,O,H,L,C,V,OI type files.

For this to be Metastock ASCII data, is should look like this...

D,CIEN,19970207,16.5000,19.1900,15.7500,18.5000,7332700
D,CIEN,19970210,18.5000,18.5000,16.8800,17.2500,2106400
D,CIEN,19970211,17.2500,18.1200,16.3800,16.3800,668400

If you have control of the EXPORT conditions, try what I suggested 
above.
