Importing data

I'm testing how to import a data file. I downloaded a typical yahoo data file with the seven columns( date, open,hi,low,close,vol,adj close) and saved it as a CVS-comma -delimited file. When I go to import it into QS(using the Data tab/ASCII Import), I get the message 1 file not loaoded. Why is the file not loaded, what am I doing wrong?

This usually means that the application cannot load the file.

Another application (such as Excel) is probably having a lock on the file.

Is there a way around this?

Best Answer

Yes. The code is already updated and you will be able to open locked file in the next version.
