Sorry, that is not the problem.
The problem occurs when the symbol name is exactly 16 characters long.
All other symbol names shorter OR longer than 16 characters read OK.
I am using Downloader 10.1 (directly from MetaStock), with its EMASTER
files.
Reuters-MetaStock IS the data source.
Downloader creates and reads the data files perfectly.
AB doesn't.
The bug exists exactly as described.

| Hello,
|
| Your data source has problem.
| You should consult data vendor,
| they should be supplying EMASTER/XMASTER files because only
| those files handle long names (52 characters).
| Only very ancient MASTER files have limit of 16 chars.
| New plugin attempts to read from EMASTER/XMASTER and then
| upto 52 characters are read. Only when your data source
| does not supply EMASTER/XMASTER it switches to legacy and
| ancient MASTER file.
