Creating custom symbol lists....EOD version7.01

I'm trying to copy a list of symbols from Excel directly into the Downloader and avoiding having to scroll through the list of securities in the 'Look-up' feature.

I realize that I need to create an ASCII file and name it with the .SYM extension (and without *.sym.txt). I've saved this into c:\program files\equis\the downloader (which is where my downloader is located). 

When I go to create a new security and click on look-up, I don't see my list there.

Can someone offer a suggestion on what's wrong? I've emailed Equis and read the manual and have followed all steps and I don't see my list of symbols.

Thanks in advance for your help
