I have uploaded an updated Help file to the files area: http://finance.groups.yahoo.com/group/amibroker/files/AmiBroker%20Help%20File/
This new file is identical to the previous file, but a new section has been added at the start of "How to...?" The section is called "Quick tutorial", and is intended for new users. New users can become frustrated when tutorials don't work, so I would be grateful if someone could try the tutorial and let me know if something doesn't work.
