Louis,
When I've reached that limit, what I've done is to divide the
securities into separate folders and then download the data into those
folders. In AmiBroker you can add multiple folders via database
configuration. AmiBroker just displays the securities as per normal
without showing you where the master files are. Or you can import
into a local database.
e.g. for NASD, I have two folders NASD1 and NASD2. NASD1 has
seucrities that occur before "L" while NASD2 has the rest.
