I do need to reload the chart to get the latest Metastock Data.
Perhaps the old "page-down - page-up" trick will work, I've not
tried it. I just close my workspace and reopen it.

Gee, I don't know. I get EOD data from Genesis, that data can also be read
in my
MetaStock 6.5 no problem, but I don't know if it is the new format or not.

It is normal for humans to be critical, and the critical ones are
more vocal than the happy ones. I seldom see happy news on TV either..
Yes, software is a difficult arena, they screw up all the time, as a trader
I have to control that which is actually in my control, and double-check
that which is not. Rather than be critical, it helps to learn to adjust and
win despite the setbacks..
