RE: [EquisMetaStock Group] What is meaning/use of Emaster, Master, Xmaster files in MS data folders?

["Richard Dale" <richard@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The ?MASTER files are the binary "index" files containing information such as codes & security description etc. about each security.

 

The Fxxx.DAT and Fxxx.MWD files contain the price data.

 

The two sets of files are known as the MetaStock file format, which is a minor enhancement of the Computrac file format.

 

Best regards,

Richard Dale.
