[amibroker] Backtesting with dividend payments?

Trading Reference Links

Hi all,

I'm a student and I use amibroker for certain simulations when writing
papers on trading methods. I usually backtest on foreign stocks, so I
usually have to import price information with a CSV file. Now I would
like to also add dividend information to the stocks I import. Meaning
that while backtesting, dividends are automatically deposited to your
fictive account, if you own the stock at dividend payment date.

Anyone know how to do this somehow? Is there a formula to 'deposit' at
a certain date if you can't define dividends?

Thanks
