Price Key File?

[Tom]

In trying to download last night's data, I'm getting an error pop-up
"Unable to Open Price Key File",
and then it aborts.

I'm wondering if this has some connection to the fact that I just
connected AmiBroker to the QP
database for the first time yesterday. Everything worked beautifully,
but ever since I shut down
Ami last night, nothing's been working.

Any tips? Thanks.

I'm up and running again.

I compared a working QP database folder (on my other computer) with the
non-working folder,
and noticed that a file called "PriceKeys" was missing from the
non-working folder. After
copying it over, everything's peachy again, both for QP and for
AmiBroker.

I do not understand how or why this file could have been deleted. It
must have been done
either by the QP downloader (yesterday morning) or by AmiBroker the last
time it ran.
Might it have something to do with having QP installed on 2 computers?
(But I haven't
used QP on the other computer for weeks & weeks.) Any ideas?

Thanks, Tom

Hi Tom

I don't know what happened, that file is only read by the qp programs. I don't know how it could have been deleted.

Best regards

Gary
