Hi Kees,
Its very simple to do it with the help of downloader.
Just do following things.
1 Create excel in the following format.
columns are separated by comma's below.
symbol, name, date, open, high, low, close, vol, o/i.
Now once ur data is ready in the above format.
click save as
and then save this file in csv format rather that excel.
once done.
2 now you need to edit the first row of this csv file.
<symbol>, <name>, <date>, <open>, <high>, <low>, <close>, <volume>, <o/i>
just make it exactly like this.
3 Once done save it and close it..
4 now open downloader.
5 click tools
6 convert
7 source file ascii, browse to this csv file which you saved in 3 step.
8 destination file metastock, browse to data folder, where you wanna keep this data.
9 click options and check create new secutiry and choose daily if its daily eod data.
10 now ok
