Thanks for your response Bill
It seems that the only thing I can think of is that I unchecked
the "load at startup" box when I created the database folder (ie
C:\Program Files\Amibroker\MSData but there no way of checking or
changing that after the initial creation. I assumed that Amibroker
reads the native MS data folders directly rather than create its own
version and therfore any download of EOD MS data from a third party
data vendor would be reflected in AB access - which is not the case
here. (BTW Metastock & other programs do disply uptodate bars)
One option is to delete the AB MSData database and start again but I
cannot see how that is done from AB
OR uninstall AB and start again - but that will/may lose the
interday data from the Quotetraker as I see it.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

as mine which works fine.
