Hi Cedrick,

I can use the convert option in metastock downloader. the problem is with 
number. I have securities organized in 8 different folders with total no > 
2000. and every day these securities gets updated with reuters datalink. 
using the chain metastock (multiple securities in different folders) to csv 
and csv to r-software could be very cumbersome on a daily basis.

i am looking for better way possible.

many thanks and regards,

krishna
