Thanks for the tips... and since you're asking:

Here's what I'm trying to do:

- Start AB
- Auto-update Quotes with Amiquote
- Run Exploration
- Export results
- Email results

Everything works.  Except the autoupdate quotes part.  Basically 
whenever I run the exploration, and receive the results, the data 
used is always the previous days information.  For example, today is 
11/4/04, but the exploration finds signals from 11/3/04.

If I update manually (i.e. Open AB, Open Quote.exe, run update...) 
the script will have results with 11/4/04 signals.

Any suggestions?

Here's part of my code:
----------------------------
...
/* *****************************************
   ***** Update Quotes *********************
   ***************************************** */
Shell.Run("C:\\Progra~1\\AmiBroker\\AmiQuote\\quote /autoupdate");
WScript.Sleep("20000");

oAB.RefreshAll();
oAB.SaveDatabase();

/* *****************************************
   ***** Run Daily Explorations ************
   ***************************************** */
AFLFolder = "C:\\Program Files\\AmiBroker\\AFLDaily"; // MODIFY TO 
FIT YOUR SETUP
 
var AA;
var f, f1, fc, s;
var filename;
 
/* Create AmiBroker object and get Analysis object */
 
AA = oAB.Analysis;
 
/* backtest over symbols and all quotes*/
AA.ClearFilters(); 
AA.RangeMode = 2;
AA.RangeN = 1;
...
