RE: TS4 5 min files

[Jo Haas <jo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Gary
here some hints about 5min file in TS4
Like you know 5min file is responsible to speed up charts
But only for chart you can divide by 5min
Means it doesn't speed up for 61min charts but for 65min charts.

If the morning update works not proper (for any reason) it could be possible
that a chart dividable by 5min is not updating but if you increase chart
with 1min ( example: you have 60min then type in keyboard 61 [press enter])
If you see chart updating after this changes - you know 5min files are
unreadable and wrong.
To fix you can easily delete this files within omega\server subdirectory
(you can do it without close server but carefully delete only 40sig5.dat and
40sig5.idx). After reload of workspace you see charts running.
During next morning update the files will be created again.

run up to 50% then increase to 0 is normal

I got no responses on this.  Anybody had any problems with Morning 
Update since the Y2K problems got resolved?
