Re: Paste In Data

If you're using the standard Win-95 Start/Find program to search for your
.OMZ file, you need to make sure that the "Look in"  line in the "Find"
dialogue box is referencing the root of your hard-drive ( Such as C:\ )
before you start your search -- if it is and you still can't find it, it's
not on your hard-drive, which probably means that something went wrong in
down-loading, or possibly it was re-named for some reason.
      
A better way is to download a FTP program, such as FTP Explorer, and use it
to retrieve files from Omega's FTP Site-- not their WWW Site.  You can
direct the files from/to anyplace you want.
       
It is also a good idea to set up a directory for data files, such as
C:\OMEGDATA, so any downloaded files will always go there and you won't have
to search for them.
   
When/if you've found the file, the Symbols you want to add must already be
in your TS Portfolio -- In the Server, go to "File/Paste In" and type in the
proper directory -- then select the .OMZ file that you want and select
"Auto" or "Custom" Paste.
