Keith,
I'm not sure that I follow you. Do you reinstall AmiB once the drive
is reformatted and then just copy back the entire AmiB directory over
the newly installed Program files?
Do you do the same thing for routine backups? If you have a problem
would you simply copy the backup of the entire AmiB directory over the
installed Program files?
By the way, I'm attempting to translate the information in the link
that Tomasz provided into a specific set of files to backup. I'm just
using Yahoo to update my U.S. Stocks database, so my situation is
fairly straightforward. Following is my list, so far:
Data Files to Backup
AmiBroker Folder
broker.layers
broker.sectors
broker.industries
broker.prefs
broker.params
U.S. Stocks Folder
Entire folder, including broker.master, broker.workspace and broker.watch
Layouts Folder
Entire folder, including Local layouts.awl (only file listed)
Could Not Locate
broker.charts
broker.bcharts
broker.groups - could not locate - stored in broker.workspace (?)
broker.markets - could not locate - stored in broker.workspace (?)
Note that I'm working on the assumption that there is no need to
backup the AmiB Data folder since it can be reinstalled from scratch
if needed. The U.S. Stocks database, however, would have to be backed
up routinely.
If anyone has any clarifications I would appreciate it.
