I want to edit a quote file, so i used the Tool/Export, used either Excel or
Notepad to edit 1 incorrect Low price, saved the file and used File/Import
Wizard. The date format on Export is D/M/YYYY. When i Import i get this
error:
Logging started for 'C:\Program Files\AmiBroker\TIVO.csv' file, using format
definition file 'Formats\wizard.format'
Error in line TIVO,1/2/2003,5.29,5.47,5.11,5.35,438300
Invalid date format/value
Error in line TIVO,1/3/2003,5.39,5.68,5.17,5.65,571200
Invalid date format/value
Error in line TIVO,1/6/2003,5.7,6,5.64,5.93,863700
Invalid date format/value
I changed the Wizard.Format file to be the same date format as the Export
(MDY) , AND the Define Fields window in the Wizard to be the M/D/Y format.
Funny thing though, the sample of the file, has these lines at the top
before the data:
$SEPARATOR ,,,,,,
$FORMAT Ticker,Date_YMD,Open,High,Low,Close,Volume
i think it is not getting the correct Date format, no matter what i do.
this is my wizard.format file:
# Format definition file generated automatically
# by AmiBroker's ASCII Import Wizard
$FORMAT Ticker, Date_DMY, Open, High, Low, Close, Volume
$SKIPLINES 0
$SEPARATOR ,
$CONT 1
$GROUP 255
$AUTOADD 1
$DEBUG 1
and i created an exact copy of the wizard.format file to csv.format. it
made no difference.
Virtually every day's data is in error.
what am i doing wrong?? i know AB has a Quote Editor, which i use, but i
thought this should work also...
