Hi Walter;<br>
<br>
Just curious, what led you to believe that some one was entering
your<br>
system? Are they doing it through your internet
connection?<br>

Source File Layout</font></b> <font size=-1>In order for an ASCII
source file to convert properly, the file must be arranged correctly.
This section explains the proper alignment.</font>
<br><font size=-1>The data in the ASCII file should be arranged as shown
below.</font>
<br><font size=-1><ticker>, <per>, <date>, <time>, <open>,
<high>, <low>, <close>, <vol>, <o/i></font>
<br><font size=-1><<b>ticker</b>> The ticker symbol of the security.
The ticker symbol is used to determine which MetaStock data file to post
the data to.</font><font size=-1>
The ticker symbol (if you choose to specify it in the ASCII file) must
be included on every line of data.</font><font size=-1>
-If the ticker symbol in the ASCII file does not match a ticker symbol
in the MetaStock data files, you will be asked</font><font size=-1>
if you want to create a new MetaStock data file.</font>
<br><font size=-1>
-If the ticker symbol in the ASCII file includes a space, a comma-delimited
header line must be created at the top</font><font size=-1>
of the ASCII file (see <u><font color="#008000">ASCII Source File Layout
</font></u>on how to create a header line). The header line allows
the file to</font><font size=-1>
be processed using only commas as delimiter characters.</font><font size=-1>
-The ticker field can be omitted, but only if the <per> field is also
omitted. If the ticker symbol is omitted, you are</font><font size=-1>
prompted to supply the ticker symbol (see <u><font color="#008000">Ticker
Symbol Dialog</font></u>).</font>
<br><font size=-1><<b>per</b>> The periodicity
of the data (e.g., Intraday, Daily, Weekly, Monthly, or Yearly).</font>
<br><font size=-1>
-If this field is omitted, the periodicity selected in the Conversion Options
dialog is used (see</font><font size=-1>
<u><font color="#008000">Conversion Options Dialog</font></u>).</font>
<br><font size=-1><<b>date</b>> The date of the data
contained on the line of the ASCII file. Each line of the ASCII file must
have a date.</font><font size=-1>
The date can be in either the yymmdd or mm/dd/yy formats (e.g., 891222
or 12/22/89).</font><font size=-1>
The dates must be in ascending order (i.e., most recent date is listed
on the last line).</font><font size=-1>
-If the dates in the ASCII file precede the dates in the existing MetaStock
file (i.e., the file you are appending to),</font><font size=-1>
the data will be ignored.</font>
<br><font size=-1><<b>time</b>> The time of the data
contained on the line of the ASCII file.</font><font size=-1>
This field should only be used if the ASCII file contains intraday price
data (i.e., the periodicity is intraday).</font><font size=-1>
The time should be entered using a 24 hour clock (e.g., 3:30 PM = 15:30).</font>
<br><font size=-1><<b>open</b>> The opening price of the
security. The open field can be omitted if the open interest (<o/i>)
field is also omitted.</font><font size=-1><<b>high</b>>
The high price for this date.</font>
<br><font size=-1><<b>low</b>> The low price
for this date.</font>
<br><font size=-1><<b>close</b>> The closing (last) price
for this date.</font>
<br><font size=-1><<b>vol</b>> The volume
for this date.</font>
<br><font size=-1><<b>o/i</b>> The
open interest for this date. The open interest field can be omitted
if the open (<open>) field is also omitted.</font> <b><font size=-1>EXAMPLE
