I don't know how I did it, but I somehow deleted the ENTIRE contents of my Favorites folder... I have countless hours of work gone... I can not see any tool to undo this action, but I am hoping someone here knows how to restore it... Please help, thanks, Z.

MZ, The contents of the Favorites folder in MS is stored in the favorites.dta file in the MetaStock directory. If you have a backup of that file, chances are you'll be able to salvage your work by restoring it. In any case - since the Favorites folder is really just a fancy way to display your securities, you'd be better off sorting your securities using directories on the filesystem itself (i.e. using The Downloader to put them in their respecive places) and only then use the Favorites folder to access them in a convenient way. Hope this helps, Traetey
