Hi all
Using MSpro 8, i have created a number of intraday securites (forex) with 5 minute intervals. When i am connected to the data server my charts are updated in real time, no problem there. But how do i keep them up to date? Let's say i disconnect for day, when i connect again my charts are missing a day's data. I have tried using the downloader, which attempts to update them but ends with "No securities were updated, errors occured."
Can anyone advise, or point me to an online resource, on how to keep intraday securities up to date using eSignal and MSpro 8?
THanks
CAble

It sounds like you are using Local Data. These files only get updated when the data/file servers and the data manager are running. There isn't an easy way to fill in the gaps. The DownLoader can only update EOD securities, not intraday.
You want to use DataOnDemand
Save the attached file to your DownLoader folder (C:\\Program Files\\Equis\ he DownLoader, by default), then restart MetaStock
Go into the Open dialog
Select the eSignal button
Double click on the eSignalsForex.sym folder
Select the desired symbol, select the periodicity in the lower, keft
Click Open
These charts will automatically do the data management for you.
