You can use the Convert function in The DownLoader to convert text data in to MetaStock data format.It would need to be formatted as follows:

<Date>,<Open>,<High>,<Low>,<Last>,<Vol>,<O/I>
12/26/2000,112.980000,113.740000,112.800000,113.730000,0,0

Also note that the date field can be in YYYYMMDD format too.
