<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> because i want to be able to recover asap
from</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> a possible next crash and as Metastock (6.52 is my
version)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> is one of the most </FONT><FONT size=2>important
applications i am running on my W98 systems </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> i would like to make :</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> an extensive list of metastock files</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> which should be backupped.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> regular.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> Because i think all members of the list could
benefit from this</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> i will start with a " first-list" which
most probably is not a </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> " end list" but with a little help from all of
you i am sure we </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> will get there.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2> 2) export custom indicators,system
tests,explorations,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> experts to a new
folder (to be made first!) :</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> name :
msformulatools</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> procedure :</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> a) go to Indicator

<DIV><FONT size=2>3) I noticed that in the c:\Program
Files\Equis\Metastock\</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> new files are made in :
EQ_SLIST (so they probably need to be</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> copied too ).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> also new files are made of new
explorations in the :</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2>HELP, simplification of things , remarks etc : very
welcome.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Maybe somebody automated the whole backup-procedure
?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Hope this "backup-procedure of Metastock files" will save
us</FONT></DIV>

future.</FONT></DIV>
