Convert2MetaStock can convert ASCII files to the popular MetaStock data format. The ASCII file can practically be in any file format. You can define how your ASCII source is structured, for example:
Which columns have which fields (date, time, open, close, etc.)

What is the column delimiter character (space, tab, etc.)

What is the date/time format (e.g. 2001.02.14 or 04-JAN-2002).
Features:
Historical end-of-day or intraday data source files can be converted.

ASCII files with the last data record at the start or end can
be read.

Securities can be stored in alphabetically sorted sub folders. (e.g. "C:\MetaStock\A" contains all securities starting with the letter "A", "C:\MetaStock\B" contains all securities starting with the letter "B" and so on).

Conversion routine can be started using command line.

Opened charts in MetaStock will be updated automatically.
