I have been using ProTA 2.11 for a couple of months now, and have been importing (free) data by cutting and pasting from tradepbs.com. The data import format is quite flexible. If you post one line of what your data looks like, I can try and see if ProTA can be made to work with it. I use it on 8.0; no reason I can think of why it won't work on 8.1. Nice application. Unlike Navigator and IE, has never crashed my PB 2300c. I am mostly FA, but I use TA to find entry and exit points. Also to find when the momentum psychos are about to stop buying or selling :-). Cheers, Kok Chen

Do you know if ProTA will accept data from AOL (free) rather than just DialData, and if it works with System 8.1? I just checked their site and it seemed like no to both questions. Hey, it makes me smile to see you again. Download this file from BeeSoft, makers of ProTA, about using data vendors with ProTA. It includes a description for using AOL for your quotes. ftp://beesoft.net/pub/web781f4/UsingDataVendors.sit.hqx You may find that it's much easier just to get a subscription to data via email from BeeSoft itself, since you simply double click the file to import everything into ProTA. It's about $10/month for daily quotes of 24 stocks.
