[Metastockusers] Re: copying data files

Not sure what I'm doing wrong.  Followed your recommendation, but 
getting message "unexpected format."  Files are indicated as .dat on 
the CD.  Read only and arhive are unchecked.  Nontheless, won't 
open.  What to do?

files and folders as writable. Just right click the folder which has 
your copied data, select properties, uncheck the read only and 
archive boxes. When you click "apply" another window would come up.
