Lesmond, Tomasz:
Thank you. Fortunately, Windows automatically puts all of the data
files into the correct folders. As Lesmond said, when I did a SAVE,
the broker.master file was not created. In case anyone else is
interested, the secret to creating the broker.____ files seems to be to
do a SAVE AS rather than just a SAVE.

Hello,
1. DELETE broker.master file
2. Run AmiBroker - it will scan files copied manually to Data folder
so they appear in the database. (you have to copy them to CORRECT
subfolder,
depending on the first letter. Please read the User's Guide for
the details:
http://www.amibroker.com/guide/h_workspace.html )
3. broker.master will be recreated by AMiBroker when you SAVE the
database
