Re: Converting Ascii data from FuturesSource???

[Jim Johnson <jejohn@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Joe,

can't answer the question but I can tell you that after fiddling w FS
data extract, Don Roos set me free.

Open a chart of the data you want.  Open the data window, right click and select Save to File.  Name the
file (remember it so you can locate it later).

go to Format Price and select a time period prior to the one listed.
Repeat data window, save to file etc.

Then open Word or Wordpad and cut/paste the files together.



13000 bar limit makes this tedious for 1 min data but for 5 min and above it works fine.

Try it, you'll like it.

Thanks, Don.
