Re: Can Symbol description be saved in .xpo?

[Jimmy <jhsnowden@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Abhijit,

I'm not sure why you are deleting the stock but if you don't have to
then simply export the data then delete the data not the symbol and
then import the data again.

This is what I do to clean up my data if I think it is corrupt.  I
first close all TS apps then copy the Server or at least the PDS
folder, assuming you are running TS2ki, then crank up the GS and do
the export...delete data...import...

Hope that is helpful.  I like the description myself.  I have noticed
that using Esignal when I add a symbol the description shows up pretty
quickly all by itself.  Cool.  Most of the time I'm too lazy to type
that in.
