David,
Thanks for your contribution as a new AmiBroker user. This will be
helpful to all. As you may or may not be aware there a a great
number of excellent formuals in the "Files" section on the AmiBroker
yahoo group site. These formuals (and other data) is unorganized and
randomly placed in by date. You computer skills would be most
appreciated if this could be organized like you have done with the
AmiBroker Library, and made available to all. Thanks again for your
contribution.
