Hi Venomnf


I suggest that you set Compatibility mode for these two applications (MetaStock & DownLoader) to Windows 2000 if you haven't already done so. This is particularly important if your operating system is Win XP Service Pack 2 (same probably applies to Vista). While it does not seem to tally with the errors you are experiencing, my experience has proved time and again that fixing the problems with a known solution often gets rid of other less clear-cut problems as well.

Right-clicking on a shortcut, Start Menu item or an EXE file and click on Properties to bring up the Compatibility tab.

  Subject: [EquisMetaStock Group] MSWin 7.2


  I have, for several months, been unable to run MS7.2 satisfactorily 
  (including the downloader). After much trial and error, (including 
  changing my hard disk to one 6 times the size!)I still have the 
  errors. However it seems to be limited to the loading of the AIM 
  (Alternative Investment Market - I'm in the UK looking at the FTSE 
  etc)folder which instigates the crash. Sometimes it loads with the 
  other folders but will always crash on making an exploration.

  The AIM folder consists of some 1800 securities. My manual tells me 
  the program allows for 2000 securities in a folder. 

  Has anyone else had such problems?
  Is there a 'tweak' I need to change in MS?
  Is there a limit to the amount of data in a folder, as opposed just 
  to the number of securities?

  Grateful for any suggestions.

  Meanwhil I offer that of all the systems I use, the most consistent 
  is a support resistance one I found some years ago:

  Open:
  Resistance :=ValueWhen(1,Cross(Mov(C, 10,
  S),C),HHV(H,10));
  Support :=ValueWhen(1,Cross(C,Mov(C, 10,
  S)),LLV(L,10));
  Resistance;
  Support;
  C>Resistance

  Close:
  Resistance :=ValueWhen(1,Cross(Mov(C, 10,
  S),C),HHV(H,10));
  Support :=ValueWhen(1,Cross(C,Mov(C, 10,
  S)),LLV(L,10));
  Resistance;
  Support;
  C<Support

  I am investigating building a portfolio of the most responsive 
  Investment Trusts (closed end investment vehicles)- cyclicals etc.

  Thanks

  dangerous to us than to any enemy...).
