Could somebody please help?
When I run an Exploration in Version 7, Metastock can process all the securites except those begining with the letter U. I have 26 folders, one for each letter of the alphabet, and U crashes Metastock every time. I have opened every security in that folder individually and they all open OK.
Also, suspecting that it might be the Exploration at fault I tried to delete it, (it was a user-defined Exploration). Metastock refused saying that it didn't have enough memory. I can find nothing in the manual about this and cannot delete a simple Exploration, e.g. Close=5
Any ideas?
Regards
:roll:

Might be the master file of that folder that is damaged ...
Have you tried deleting the U folder then recreate it and update it again ...

Hey Patrick,
thanks for that reply. Do you mean simply copy the U folder contents, then delete the U folder, create a new U folder and bring back the original contents, or.........
do you mean dump the whole lot and recreate the contents too?
Regards
:?

Unfortunately I mean to dump the whole thing ... Copying the data back would only copy the error back.

Dear Patrick,
thanks for that, but it begs another question. Unless there is a way for The Downloader to extract only the U securities then as I understand it I will have to extract everying security since the year dot for every day and then delete all those that I don't want. Am I right? ((I hope not)
:(

Ok here is what I was thinking ...
You delete the U folder.
Then open the downloader, click on file, new security, then click on lookup and in the search type U ( Make sure to select search by symbol )
Now click on select all and click on ok...
Set all the other options etc ...
I hope that is an acceptable workaround, sorry :cry:
