no signal and wrapper required:

Vars: String1(" "), strComma("");

String1 = "c:\" + GetSymbolName + ".t2k";
strComma = ",";
FileAppend(String1,
	NumToStr(Time, 0) + strComma +
	NumToStr(Open, 3) + strComma +
	NumToStr(High, 3) + strComma +
	NumToStr(Low, 3) + strComma +
	NumToStr(Close, 3) + strComma +
	NumToStr(V, 0) +
	NewLine);
