Hello,
Since AB by default uses AFL file name there should be no problem
unless you use SetFormulaName with some Windows reserved name
like "PRN", "AUX", "LPT", "COM"
The file names that AmiBroker tries to create are:
Reports\results.rlst
Reports\ReportName-YYYYMMDDHHmmSSTTT\stats.html
Reports\ReportName-YYYYMMDDHHmmSSTTT\charts.html
Reports\ReportName-YYYYMMDDHHmmSSTTT\formula.html
Reports\ReportName-YYYYMMDDHHmmSSTTT\settings.html
YYYY - is 4 digit year
MM - is 2 digit month
DD - is 2 digit day
HH - is 2 digit hour (24 hour system)
mm - is 2 digit minute
SS - is 2 digit seconds
TTT - is 3 digit millisecond (000..999)
Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko
