    <DIV>Attached is the MSWIN directory with the file msw652.exe at 4498kb on 
    it.&nbsp; I got the file from the EOD MS which is what I have, that is MS6.5

    <DIV>I tried under C:\Equis, etc. and none would work.&nbsp; Perhaps there

Walter, List

Yes - VB meaning Visual Basic 6.0  NOT VBA

If you're using a spreadsheet (Lotus, Microsoft) you can paste the data directly
into the spreadsheet from MetaStock.  Use the instructions below to get the data
out of MetaStock, skip the part about "Open Microsoft Note Pad" and paste it
into the spreadsheet directly.

In Microsoft Excel you can import external data from a text .txt file.  Data -
Get external - Import text file

There is an open file function in VBA.  You can use this to open a text .txt.
file into Excel.  You cannot use it to read MetaStock files directly.

MetaStock File Library  (costs $) can be used to read MetaStock files directly
into VB.  I will be getting a copy to use with my VB program.

There are, however, a work around using VB to read MetaStock files and
converting them to .txt to be used in Excel.  Once in Excel you can use VBA.

Let me know if I can be of any help,
Don

Hi Don

You are referring to VB in your post and NOT to VBA?

Is there a comparable method / path for VBA?

Best regards

Walter

Guy,  Richard Bone and List

I'm writing a VB program to test some formulas for Steve and there are a
couple
of ways to get data into VB.  First get the data out of MetaStock and into a
more usable format - open a chart in MetaStock, click on the graph line,
right
click on the graph line, click copy, open Microsoft Note Pad, click paste,
or
open a spreadsheet program and click paste, save file as .txt.  VB can open
and
read the comma delimited text (.txt) file with no problems.  You can also
incorporate a spreadsheet into VB directly and paste the above data into
this
spreadsheet, then perform any calculations on the data.

Contact me privately for more information or if you want to purchase a VB
program to do this.

Richard

As I understand it, there are two ways to access your Metastock data from
VB.  Equis offers two different libraries.  They offer a read only DLL
library for $99 (I think) and a more extensive MSFL which provides you with
the ability to maintain the Metastock data as well.  I don!,t remember the
price, but its all on the Equis site.

If there are other ways to do it, I!,d be interested in hearing about them
as
well.

Hi all,

I have followed a number of the threads regarding Visual Basic but I am
still unclear whether it's possible to access the MetaStock files from
Visual Basic? ... and if so how?

I have seen that there is a read-only MDK but that is at extra cost ... at
present price is unclear.

Are there 'other' ways of doing it?

I'd appreciate any help.
