Most program's allow to export in some kind of ASCII format.
These files you then have exported can again be imported using
the downloader. That means you will have to do 3 steps to
get data into MS. Startup DTLINK and download from wherever
you want. Export into ASCIII (or some other compatible
format) using DTLINK. Startup the downloader and import the
files you just exported. Then you can use the files you have
updated or created.
That is the nice feature of that program called download center
(dCenter) It works toghether with The Downloader so all you
have to do is start up the downloader, click on download prices
and the downloader will do the rest (through dCenter)
It might not be the cheapest option ($54) but it sure
is the easiest way i can think of :-))

update and to automatically export it into Metastock data files, or is it
necessary to export the data for one security at a time and then import it
into Metastock?Lionel Issen

Hi.
I have never tested the maximum size. I get maybe about
20 items.
It takes seconds, and extremely easy once you get the
hang of it.
Software is dtlink.com 30 days free. I like it, again it
took me a while to understand downloading history, and daily update were 2
different
displays, but once you know how, the rest is easy.
