You need to put the database file from the unzipped one(new folder USStocks))in the Amibroker program files. If your current one is named USStocks rename the new one to USStocks1(or something similar). Once it is in file open Amiboker and under files dropdown open the new one. It should be there and open. You can then clean up as deisred and download from Yahoo the data from a range you desire. Keep both datbases for the time being until you are sure of everything on the new one. Incidently Jim has downloaded an new one so you might want to use it.
