>> It means running through the Downloader an extra time each download.

Not exact. If you create sub child folders beneath the main parent folder, than by
converting to the parent only (and when "Traverse Destination subfolders" and
"Create New Securities" are checked on the Destination TAB) you will have
all of the secs being updated and kept up to date all of the time.

I recently have send a sample of my setup (see futher below), but you can create
many more (and naturaly different) child folders. In your example, that could be:

-DATA {parent}
      |---A or HotStocks {child, first 200}
      |---B or WatchList   {child, next 200}
      |---C or Part3         {child, 401-1000}
      |---D or Part4         {child,1001-1500 or even smaller}
      |---E or Part5         {child,1501-2000 or even smaller}
      |---F or Part6         {child, 2001-3000 or even smaller}
etc. etc.
and replace A-Z and Part 3-n with any catchy nickname that will explain what's in
that particular folder.

All you would have to do now is to Explore the HotStocks (and/or combined with
the WatchList) folder.
Convert will then only have to take place to the parent folder, so in your
example ONLY to the C:\Data folder.

Here at home I am also using the (asterix) *.prn for Source File setting
(eg source file that is to be found in a therefore especialy created D:\Temp folder,
eg a folder that is soly dedicated to the daily from datavendor received and daily
self created PRN files). Files thus, that can than be always found in my D:\Temp
folder and for Destination Folder my below D:\MSK folder is used.

No need to adjust this setting anymore, since Convert will remember it everyday !!!!!
(actulay it is stored in the Windows Registry, and all the Downloader does
is call request Windows and its Register for this information, eg each time the
Convert Tool is started).
Personal automation in the simpliest, but also in the most precisest form.
