Pinnacle Data and GlobalServer

["etrader" <etrader@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi List,

Just wanted to get some feedback from Pinnacle
data users.

I'm thinking of using Pinnacle to update the GS
database but it seems that they only support ASCII
or Metastock, not XPO.

So i have a few questions:
1) HOw clean is their data?
2) Is there a way to download this data into GS
XPO on a nightly basis automatically? 
    OR do we just let the pinnacle datamanager
manage an ASCII database (ie. to download the
ascii data, let the datamanager incorporate the
data into our existing ASCII database and have
TS2000i read from the ASCII data directly
bypassing GS).  In other words, we'll have 2
databases - one managed by GS in XPO, the other
managed by Pinnacle in ASCII

Thanks
