Let me know if this "fix" works for you. I delete old MS data nightly along with their MSsmart subdirectories for new output from QP scans, but once a chart is viewed in MS. . . whamo . . . another MSSmart directory, despite having Smart Charts turned off. You try to save any and it insists on being named as a Smart Chart. If you use a default template or layout groups as Sean and Richard instructed the irritation seems to be of minor functional significance. If you change your default layout with residual MSSmart chart files the default doesn't overwrite the old. In other words, you can clean things out by deleting all these directories, but the program recreates them in the default style each time opened.

General queston. I've followed the advice of SI here and have only loaded stocks from QP scans into MS. But I'm curious, what do you all do w/ a stock that you hear about, or wnat to take a look, and want to chart it in MS? Make a new list in qp w. that stock, output it to MS, and then finally you can view it? Seems like an awful amount of work to view these particular stocks. So why don't you all just load the QP database onto your HD so you can easily pull up any stock, anytime? Thanks, Chrisg
