Jan: You could create a new profile in QP Virtual on the D drive called Meta, so the new directory is: D:/Meta

Reboot the computer after the new profile (still an empty directory) is created.

Now use this coding at the top of your nightly scan to automatically output the stocks to virtual directories:

ProcessMS = "D:\meta\06-16\",VMS;

After you run the scan, the directory 06-16 will be created automatically under D:\Meta, with all the stocks found by the scan. Update the coding each night, of course:

ProcessMS = "d:\meta\06-17\",VMS;
ProcessMS = "d:\meta\06-18\",VMS;

If you want real Metastock compatible files, which take up more space on the hard drive than virtual files, change the coding to:

ProcessMS = "d:\meta\06-18\",MSDATA;

Again, the directory 06-18 will be automatically created.

Jan,

something like this you can easily do in batch or winbatch....

I suggest you start by looking at my batch package...
