[amibroker] Re: Combining databases



PureBytes Links

Trading Reference Links

I think the key here is the file:

AmiBroker\Data\broker.master

This file is said to "store the table of all symbols and is used for
quick loading of the database" (quote from the Help File).

Unfortunately, if you delete "broker.master" it will not be
automatically recreated at next startup (at least on my system).

May be someone else could offer some ideas how to "teach"
broker.master to recognize symbols copied to Data folder directly
from Windows Explorer.

Otherwise the only solution would be to export/import all new symbols
between your databases in one or more huge csv files.
