format of data for filling gaps

[Lee Goldberg <crooked-man@xxxxxxxx>]

Hello Everyone,

I am seeking clarification on what data format is required to fill gaps in
real time charts in this scenario:

1. Incoming data feed is Windows DDE (Data Stream Type and Data Input
Method are Windows DDE).

2. Emulator software (Meta Server RT) receives data and converts to DBC
Signal format.

3. Global Server receives the converted-to-DBC-Signal data and plots and
saves the data.

?Since the data ends up in DBC Signal format prior to being plotted and
then saved as historical data, must refresh data, used for import into GS
to fill gaps in these charts, also be in DBC Signal format?

?If DBC Signal format not required, then xpo/omz/ascii can be used?

All help greatly appreciated.

PS. If there is a place to view concise, useful information and
instructions on topics like this please point me there.  I found nothing in
the omega manuals, website kb, or third party faqs.
