Chuck,
I use the following code. It may work for you.
//##### Include File #####\\
//##### Zacks Earnings Date #####\\
//##### 9/24/05 #####\\
//##### Data must be downloaded from Zacks #####\\
//##### and placed in a .csv file for access #####\\
FileString = Null;
EarningsDate = "N/A";
fh = fopen("C:\\Program Files\\AmiBroker\\My Misc Files\\Zacks
Earnings Dates.csv","r");
if (fh)
{//1
while(!feof(fh))
{//2
FileString = fgets(fh);
if (StrExtract(FileString,0) == Name())
{//3
EarningsDate = StrLeft(StrExtract(FileString,1),8);
}//3
}//2
fclose(fh);
}//1
I also import numerical data using dummy tickers from a .csv file
maintained in Excel. Ii is imported using File/Import ASCII.
Regards,
Tony
