Problem regarding importing EOD data through ASCII File

I am not able to import the eod data through manual ascii method, I tried to follow the procedure according to the help menu. I have the eod dat in .txt files one .txt file for each day.
Eg: file names : cm01jan2009bhav,cm02jan2009bhav etc.,
<ticker>,<Date>,<open>,<high>,<low>,<close>,<vol>,
20MICRONS,20090102,17.3,19.7,17.3,18.2,120522,
3IINFOTECH,20090102,40.4,43.25,40.2,41.15,1011412,

I have imported one single ascii file and its showing all the scrips names but its not asking for the data source directory to add the whole historic data.
Kindly let me know how to add the whole data into the software and also how to update it daily. I have even mailed fibotrader support couple of times but i have not recieved any reply so far.

Kindly let me know how to solve this problem.

Hi Vijay,
I have downloaded the complete eod data from the net in *.txt files, one *.txt file for each day and the file names are
cm01jan2009bhav,cm02jan2009bhav etc.,
and data in file is in this format
<ticker>,<Date>,<open>,<high>,<low>,<close>,<vol >,
20MICRONS,20090102,17.3,19.7,17.3,18.2,120522,
3IINFOTECH,20090102,40.4,43.25,40.2,41.15,1011412,
and i have all these files in one folder in the system.

After installing the software i clicked the data source through ascii file import method and selected one ascii file from the folder where i have dumped the whole eod data, and I have saved one template as general.(ascii import/templates). This is the procedure given in help menu import the data through ascii file.

After that the software is suppose to ask for an ascii data directory which we have to link so that the complete data can be imported into the database but its not asking for the data directory. So I am unable to import the whole data.

And another thing kindly also mentioned how to update it daily and which is the best free eod data for nse & bse which i can import to fibotrader.

Thanks for replying for the query, eagerly awaiting for your response.

Regards,
Tousif.

I think it should be my duty to the new Fbotrader users that
they will start their own technical analysis as soon as after installation not
to bother to customize its enviornment. For their convenience I uploaded
my own 'Main' file to **********. What u will have to do is that unzip it and copy it to
-->Fibotrader -> data folder. Restart Fibotrader.
The 'Main' file contains my own templates and sectorwise classification of NSE stocks. u could also create your own templates.

download link :
http://www.************/file/19272404/5d4d1e6d/Main.html

here is the EOD database(Quote_0) updated till 2nd Nov. 2006.
what u will have to do is that:
download -> unzip -> u will get the 'Quotes_0' file.

as far as symbol is concerned, my symbols and the symbols used by bse-nse are exact the same. If u use bse-nse's data, delete the open interest column before importing.
2. unzip it.
3. start Quoteman.(Quoteman will not start automatically with the Fibotrader. to start Quoteman manually go to Start-> All Programs-> Fibotrader->Quoteman. If u want Quoteman will start automatically, click
on 'Preferences' tab (a wheel sign on the Fibotrader toolber, second from the left)->Preferences->general...->check the 'Start Quoteman Automatically'.

will appear. if it will not vanish within a few seconds just ignore it]
10. click again on Start button.

At this point of time don't update future from the file that bse-nse2005 ***** group provides. my symbol is different. but don't worry. i will solve the problem for u. till then i will upload it everyday in thread Data Feeds -> EoD Update of Fibotrader.
