hi stuart, thanks for the internet info, re the data problem, try
downloading the parity shareware, you should now be able to get it from
peter cooney's financial markets bbs in melb, otherwise surf some other
bbs' for it. it really is worth getting and registering, re data conversion
in general, try the ptt program, you can definitely download that from the
fin mark bbs. i'm not too sure if metastock data travels well ie via bbs'.
if you are having continued problems converting the *.prn data post me a
further message and i'll see what i can do for you...regards
