    Configure Advanced Get to open MetaStock files

  1. Copy the MSFL651.dll file from the c:\Program Files\Infosoft\Bodhi3\Main directory into your c:\Windows\System directory.
  2. Start Advanced Get and choose MetaStock File Library (NOT Computrac/MetaStock as this uses the 255 folder limit format).
  3. You can now start opening charts from the data directory - c:\My Databases\MetaStock\%Source%\A0 etc.
    Please Note: %Source% is a wildcard and is automatically replaced with the three letter Exchange code of any Exchanges you are downloading. For example: if you download information from the Australian and New York Stock Exchanges you will have a c:\My Databases\MetaStock\ASX\A0 and a c:\My Databases\MetaStock\NYQ\A0 directory structure.
