How to retrieve real-time historical information

There is no way to get historical intraday data into your real-time files; but, if you have a real-time folder with say, 'csco' hourly in it but only have a few rows of data:

- Open a 60 minute chart of 'csco'

- Right-click on 1 of the price bars and click copy

- Go to the downloader and open csco's datasheet in that real-time folder

- Paste the data

- Delete all the rows of data that were in there to begin with. Note: As you’re deleting, you will occasionally get a warning box saying the days are not in order, click 'no' since you’re deleting those rows. No need to worry about the start date, the downloader will back up the time.
