[amibroker] Data import automation - Is this doable ?

Friends,

Here is the background.

1) I have a 'database' sourced from external source.

2) I need to import *just* 1 security based on an ASCII file,
   which *does not* exist in the external source.  The format
   for record in the ASCII file is ===>
       mm/dd/yyyy,Open,High,Low,Close

3) The sequence of *manual* operation I perform goes something like
   a) I update the ASCII file (in step 2)
   b) I invoke AmiBroker
   c) I click thru the menu 'File Import_ASCII'
   d) I type-in the name of the file (in step 2)
   e) I click 'Open' to start import

The whole manual operation goes absolutely fine !

Now what I want to do is to automate steps c), d) and e) above.

Is this doable.  Any inputs about how to do it ?

Regards,
- Salil V Gangal
