<P>The Formula Organizer is a wizard that allows you to import and export

<P>To import or Export Custom Indicators, System Tests, Explorations, and/or 
Experts:</P>
<UL>
  <LI>Run MetaStock. 
  <LI>Choose Indicator Builder from the Tools menu. 
  <LI>Click the Organizer button to launch the Formula Organizer Wizard. 
  <LI>Follow the on-screen instructions. </LI></UL>
<P>Below an example is printed of&nbsp;using the Organizer to export formula

<UL>
  <LI>Open the Formula Organizer and&nbsp;the Organizer Wizard to appear
  <LI>Click <EM>Export</EM> and click <EM>Next</EM>

  <LI>Repeat this procedure for explorations and expert advisors. 
  <LI>After clicking <EM>Next</EM> in the expert advisors dialog you will be

Hi everybody,

I am struggling with the Data Window data in MS 6.52. For some(?) reasons, its accuracy (# of
decimals) varies, and sometimes a price gets rounded off. For instance, for SII on 05/28/92 in MS
6.52 it shows

O  10.00
H  10.50
L   9.625
C  10.38

while in MS 5.11 the same looks like

O  10.0000
H  10.5000
L   9.6250
C  10.3750

Fishy in MS 6.52 is rounded off C, let alone visual inconvenience. Don't know where to look for to
correct it. Has somebody seen anything like this? Sometimes moving to other date range makes it
change to 3 decimals, but cannot see why, how to hold it. Though, in fractions prices are shown
right (well ... then there is nothing to round off). Mind that for both MS versions I used the same
MS data file; so, the problem is not there, in the data file.

It's awfully frustrating to see prices that just don't exist (like $10.38).

Thanks.

Cheers, Vitaly
