I've just finished reading all the posts and there is great TS related info here.

I'm a SuperCharts V4 Build 10 (latest upgrade) user since V2.1 and satisfied with what it has to offer. Mainly EOD charting analysis and system building. I day-trade TSE and some CDNX stocks using Canada-stockwatch feed and charts and also download the CSW EOD data in an ascii format. Because the ascii file contains all symbols for the day, I wrote a Visual Basic (Ver. 6) program to split the CSW file into individual text files for each symbol because that is the requirement by SC. Now I am able to view these symbols using SC.

One annoying problem, however. When plotting a chart, SC prompt for the Field Order and then the Setting for the ascii file. I have created a DOP file but it still prompts for the field order. Even inserting the field order as the first line in the ascii data file makes no difference. This is not a problem when using non-ascii data files (CD data from DialData etc.) Because of this problem scanning a directory containing all the TSE symbols for indicator and chart patterns is not feasible.

I'm assuming TS uses ascii data the same way. Anybody have experience in this or suggestions on how to overcome this limitation.

Regards,
Nick
