addendum: I know that the trial version doesn't save its database, so
AmiBroker.Quit() makes no sense and should be omitted. I entered
Amibroker.Quit() just to see whether Amibroker reacts to the executed
script.  Also with  AmiBroker.Quit() omitted, above script doesn't
work under Vista Business x64 with Amibroker 5.10 Standard.  I don't
know whether this is the expected behavior of Amibroker or whether
Vista needs special configuration.
