Interesting bug in the new metastock plugin:

If the symbol name is just 16 characters long, the 16th character isn't 
shown by AB.

If the name is ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP
AB shows only ABCDEFGHIJKLMNO

| Hello,
|
| AmiBroker 5.27.0 ALPHA released
|
| 
http://www.amibroker.com/devlog/2009/08/03/amibroker-5-27-0-alpha-released/
|
| ALPHA means that this version is experimental and you *must* do backup of 
your data files before installing it. New version changes
| the format of database files (quotation / stock / drawings ),
| so once data are saved with version 5.27 you will NOT be able to read them 
in pre-5.27 version.
| The ALPHA installer comes with simple backup program that will create a 
copy of your AmiBroker directory - it will display right
| after new program files are copied. The backup will be created in 
C:\AmiBrokerBackup folder. Please note that this backup is
| intended to copy the database files, not program files which will be 
overwritten anyway. If you want to backup program files too,
| you need to backup them manually prior to installation. If you made your 
own backup prior to installation, you can skip (Cancel) the
| backup part of the install routine.
|
| CHANGES IN VERSION 5.27.0 (as compared to 5.26.0):
|
| - changed core data structures to support the following
| -- 64 bit date/time field with date range of 4095 years and resolution 
down to microseconds
| -- floating point volume and open interest fields
| -- two new auxilliary data fields per bar (internally, not yet exposed)
| -- 100 new user-defined fundamental data fields (internally, not yet 
exposed)
| -- support for GICS (internally, not yet exposed)
| -- upto 48 character length in Symbol/Alias/WebID fields
| - Updated plugins for eSignal, IQFeed, Interactive Brokers, Quotes Plus, 
Metastock to support floating point volume/open int and 64
| bit date/time
| - 1-second interval bars
| - Metastock plugin now reads long symbol description
| - Symbol lock fixed (does not interfere with Interval linking)
| - Added simple "BackupAB.exe" to backup entire AmiBroker folder after 
installation to prevent data in old format.
