[amibroker] Re: Data not updated

Thanks Richard,

I've just done what Graham suggested as I'm using the Metastock plug-
in.

I had already retrieved the symbols as you mentioned before I asked 
about this and as you say, it would be nice if it was automatic to 
retrieve new symbols.

I remember when I first started using Amibroker (couple of years ago 
now), I thought it was strange that this was not automatic. It's just 
a click, but would be good to have an option to automatically retrieve 
on startup.

Cheers, Glenn
