[amibroker] Re: How to stop fundamental download from overwriting Fullname ???

This is a work-around that I use.  After loading the fundamental data, I run the following script to put the names back to what I like.
If you haven't done these scripts:
1. Edit/Save the file as clear text using NotePad or whatever.
2. Go to FILE -> IMPORT ASCII in AB
3. Navigate to the file & click OPEN
You're done.

$FORMAT FULLNAME, NAME
$AUTOADD 1
$OVERWRITE 1
$BREAKONERR 1
PS DynBioTech,PBE
FTr Biotech,FBT
iShr Nas BioTech,IBB
sTr BioTech,XBI
Hldrs Biotech,BBH

ETC.

The problem is that the full name for the mutual funds from Yahoo starts with the company and is usually 40 charaters long and so there is no value left in the field to understand which fund it is, as it is restricted to maybe 17 charaters.
