Mark,
Thank you so much for your information about downloading from Stockbrowser
to Metastock. Still working on it..
New Question: I would like to put my own stocks in, or download all us
equities.. (maybe this is too much).. so far, no luck.. could you please
explain in detail how to put my own list of stocks in, as you did so well
regarding the downloading?
Thanks in advance,
RB
