Re: [amibroker] Using Amibroker with External Data for different Exchanges

I also import MS data from a variety of folders.  The data is downloaded on the basis of symbol and not name.  I assume that is the situation in your case.  If so, you an keep track of the folders with a single AB database by incorporating folder information in the name.
