I assume that your MS data includes both the symbol and the name and that you have specified these when you decided which symbols to download and setup the folders.  If so, simply include the exchange in the name (i.e., XXX = symbol, YYY-exchange = name).  If not, I don't understand how your MS folders are setup.
