Title: Message
Slight correction to my previous email on this subject.  The batch file, as well as Mimansoor's conversion program, is in my C:\MasterdataCode\BatchFiles\Convert\ directory.  NOT, the C:\MasterdataCode\BatchFiles\Convert\asc2ms directory.

Hi Harish,
 
Here is a batch file I use for Mimansoor's conversion program (in this case, converting text files to MetaStock price file format):
 
C:
cd\
cd MasterdataCode
cd Program
cd MetaStockPxVol
 
C:\MasterdataCode\BatchFiles\Convert\asc2ms -f NYSEDaily-PxVol.asc -r fileReplace -o C:\MasterDATA\Counts\Daily
              (conversion program location)                                            (datafile to be converted)                                         (destination for the new MetaStock price file)
 (I am leaving out many more duplicate lines with different filenames for numerous other datafiles)
 
This converts text datafiles in my C:\MasterdataCode\Program\MetaStockPxVol directory to MetaStock format price files in my C:\MasterDATA\Counts\Daily directory.  The batch file (above) as well as Mimansoor's conversion program is in my C:\MasterdataCode\BatchFiles\Convert\asc2ms directory.
 
Good luck and thanks, again, to Mimansoor.  It works flawlessly.
 
Best,

   v1.5.8 Change Log: (Fri Dec 31 2004)
   ==================
    *) asc2ms now supports updateRecord option if recordFile
       exists.
      
       The option is:
[--recordFileExist=|-r appendRecord|updateRecord|recordReplace|
fileReplace]

       UpdateRecord option is useful if you need to update some price

       data fields like name/open/high/low/close/volume/openinterest
       and at the same time you want to preserve other fields intact.

       Note: You cannot use this option to update ticker-symbol
             date and time fields, since these are used to identify
         the record (record key fields).

   v1.5.7 Change Log: (Fri Dec 24 2004)
   ==================
    *) asc2ms and ms2asc now support priority levels.
       Supported priority levels are high/medium/low.

       This feature is useful to reduce load on the system
       when its used to convert data in bulk, in batch mode.

       The option is [--priorityLevel=|-l high|medium|low]

       If option is not specified then by default it is high.

   v1.5.6 Change Log: (Mon Dec 20 2004)
   ==================
    *) ms2asc now supports purging of zero volume data,
       a new option [--purgeZeroVol|-p] has been introduced
       to achieve the same.

    *) ms2asc now supports selective price data output,
       it supports the following options:
       [--symbolContains=|-s <ticker_symbol>]
       [--nameContains=|-n <ticker_name>]
       [--printFromDate=|-d <date>]
       [--printUptoDate=|-u <date>]

       For example, if --symbolContains="INTC" is passed, then
       all symbols containing the words "INTC" will be output
       into the ascii file.

       Similarly, if --nameContains="Intel" is passed, then all
       ticker names containing the words "Intel" will be output
       into the ascii file.

       Note: the letters are not case sensitive so "INTC" and "intc"
       both are equivalent.

       If --printDateFrom="27-Apr-1975" is passed, then all
       symbols with dates greater than or equal to the above date
       will be output into the ascii file.

       If --printDateUpto="27-Apr-1975" is passed, then all
       symbols with dates less than or equal to the above date
       will be output into the ascii file.

       Note: The date format could be any of the supported date
       formats, for ex: "19750427", "27/04/1975", "750427" etc.,

    *) asc2ms has a bug fix in ticker name. Ticker name was
       being written same as ticker symbol, fixed it.

   v1.5.5 Change Log: (Wed Dec 15 2004)
   ==================
    *) asc2ms now supports [--reverseOrder|-b] option.
    If this option is enabled, then the data is read from
    last line first. This option is useful to convert Yahoo!
    price data, which is stored as latest price first format.

   v1.5.4 Change Log: (Fri Dec 10 2004)
   ==================
    *) asc2ms now generates EMASTER file along with MASTER file.

   v1.5.3 Change Log: (Sun Dec  5 2004)
   ==================
    *) Implemented the following header line format:

DateTime,Open,High,Low,Close,VAvg,Qty,Value,Trades,OpenInt,Cnt

       DateTime field is just a time format field
       in the following "03:50:25 p" or "10:50:25 a"
       format.

       VAvg, Value, Trades are ignored.

       Note this is an intraday tick data format, since
       date is the same for all the prices.

    *) Now empty fields are recognized, and treated as such.

    *) Header fields "Cnt" or "Index" is now used to
       sort based on the index.

    *) date field can now be specified on the command line.
       --date="05-Dec-2004",  -d "05-Dec-2004", -d "05/12/2004",
       -d "20041205" etc., are valid date field formats.

   v1.5.2 Change Log: (Sat Nov 13 2004)
   ==================
    *) Implemented the following header line format

        Index,Date Time,Open,High,Low,Close,Volume

        Here 'Index' field is ignored, and is as good
        as XX field. Date and Time could be in any of the
        below mentioned formats.

        Date: mmddyy, mmddyyyy, dd/mm/yy, dd/mm/yyyy, dd-mm-yy
        Time: hh:mm:ttt, hh:mm:ss, hhmm, hhmmss, hhmmttt etc.,

        This header line format is useful for those who use
        exported csv file from IndiaBulls website.

   v1.5.1 Change Log: (Sat Nov 6 2004)
   ==================
    *) Implemented ignoring of unused or dontcare fields
       which can be represented by XX in the header line.
       like <symbol>,<xx>,<per>,<open>,<high>,<low> ...
       or   <symbol>,XX,<per>,<open> etc.,

    *) Now NSE (National Stock Exchange of India) bhav copy
       *.csv format, can be directly converted to Metastock format.
       Bhav copy csv format is as below:

SYMBOL,SERIES,OPEN,HIGH,LOW,CLOSE,LAST,PREVCLOSE,TOTTRDQTY,TOTTRDVAL,
TIMESTAMP,  
  
      So the above header line format is now supported, where:
      SERIES, LAST, PREVCLOSE, TOTTRDVAL fields are ignored presently
     
      In case you need to use LAST instead of exchange adjusted close
price
      CLOSE then you could rename LAST to CLOSE and rename CLOSE to
XX
      to ignore the same.
