RE: Equis 6.52 Y2k offer

["Guy Tann" <grt@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Al

I first upgraded via the downloaded patches.  Since then I ordered the $10
CD-ROM since I am in the process of setting up a new P3-500 computer.

With the downloaded patches, I had no trouble accessing the Downloader data
either with MS 5.1 (DOS) or with TAS so the data was available to me either
through MS for Window, MS for DOS, DL for Windows or DL for DOS.

If I remember correctly, the one step I had to do first was to go into DL
(DOS) and copy down all of my vendor information since it's not available in
the DL (WIN) I think.  Anyway, that's what I did.  I still use all of the
various programs in my computer to access the data.  Since you're using QP2,
I have no idea what the difference will be, if any.

Regards,

Subject: Equis 6.52 Y2k offer

I will have to go with the 6.52 ver if I am to stay with the MetaStock
program because of the Y2K statement that Equis has issued.  Would it be
advantaneous to accept the $10 CD upgrade only, or would it be worth the
dollars to buy the program with the manual?

I use MS strictly for the charting abilities and am not heavy into
indicators, etc.  Could anyone that has accepted the $10 offer advise as to
any difficulties in installation and conversion of data into the new
Downloader?

I presently use MetaStock ver 5.11 and Downloader ver 4.11.  My data
collection and conversion is handles by Quotes Plus 2.  I presently have
absolutely no problems.

Thanks,
