Last time I spoke to a tech at Equis he told me to copy over:
Charts (folder)
Experts(folder)
Explore(folder)
Results(folder)
Form.Dta (That's usually listed as MS70, MS80 or MS90Form.Dta whatever version you have)
Expl.Dta (same applies as above)
Expt.Dta (again)
St_DATA
I don't know about the DLL's but they probably should be copied over unless you want to reload all your external DLL's again.
Hope that helps,
G

Subject: Cross over formula
Purchased Metastock 9.1 EOD and need a little help on this cross
over formula.
Placed the formula in the filter box. Also, wanted to be able to
adjust the Periods. So anytime the 9 day expotential average crosses
the 26 day, the stock is highlighted. Also wanted to be able to
select the stocks to review. Any comments would be helpful.
My formula is listed below:
periods1 := 9;
periods2 := 26;
C<5 AND
Cross(Mov(C,periods1,E),(Mov(C,periods2,E)))
Thanks
Gamski

Terry,
- use Indicator builder/Organizer/Export formula files to export all Custom
indicators, System tests, Explorations, etc. I find it easiest to export
these to a new directory (e.g. MSbackup) on a hard drive, and then copy them
over to a CDRW/DVDRW/external hard disk, if needed. But this process does
not export all of the DLLs or your custom charts & templates. For that, just
copy the subfolders External Function DLLs and Charts located under
Equis\Metastock to another medium (or even the same direcory as above) as
described above. After you have installed MS and any plubins or addons you
have purchased on the new PC, and have rebooted, just use Indicator
builder/Organizer/Import formula files to import those files you exported
above. Since many may already exist in the deafult MS installtion, its up to
you if you want to overwrite them during this import process. Finally, copy
the External Function DLLs and Charts subfolders to the corresponding ones
on the new PC
- the last time I installed MS on a new PC was ~2-3 yrs ago; back than, I
had v7.2 I think. What I did was this: installed MS (and any plugins) on the
new PC, rebooted (to allow any registry changes to take effect or DLLs to
register), ran MS once or twice till it made all registry entries it needed
to. Then I just copied the entire Equis folder from the old PC over to the
new PC over the home LAN, replacing everything. Rebooted and started MS.
Worked like a charm, with all my custom settings, etc. Whether this process
will still work with MS v8.x or v9.x, I don't know but is the easiest way
- Whatever you do, make a complete backup of the entire Equis directory (on
your old PC) to a CD-RW/DVD-RW/hard disk and keep for atleast a few
weeks/months till you are satisfied your new installation is working OK
- Don't hesitate to call MS tech support; that's what they are there for!

Subject: RE: Cross over formula
Gamski,
OPen a chart of any symbol, right click, choose Expert Advisor...Expert
Properties, click on Highlight tab, click new, give a suitable name (e.g
9/26 EMA crossover), paste your entire formula, choose appropriate color,
than close clicking OK buttons along the way. Any bar that fulfills the
conditions will be highlighted.
Just 1 word though - you don't want to put C<5 in the highlight function;
after all, the charts you will be looking at will hopefully be of the price
range you're wanting to trade. If you leave the C<5 in your fml, then if you
look at at charts of symbols with higher prices (e.g. GOOG), then you won't
get any highlighted bar. The C<5 is best used in an exploration to filter
out stocks based on your price preference. To create a new exploration: Just
click on Explorer, click new, give an appropriate name (e.g. Stock <5 with
9/26 EMA crossover), than paste the entire code (including C<5) in one of
the tabs (say A), in the last tab (Filter) write column A (or whichever tab
you had posted your code into), save the exploration and run it on your
favorite stock list and check out the results.
Lastly, Read the Manual! Do the tutorials!!
