On 7.XX and earlier versions all explorations and indicators are stored in
the *.DTA files. Export a few custom indicators to a sperate working folder
and you will see the file name used - MSFORM72.DTA or some such. Including
explorations will give two files - I forget the name of the second.
A good policy would be to backup ALL *.DTA files (from the MetaStock folder)
and the Experts sub-folder and contents.
