How does DataDirector 2 update data?
DataDirector2 can update your data in several different ways. Create a "Favourites" folder with a program such as the Equis Downloader and DataDirector 2 will update those stocks. Have all of your data go into a singular folder or select one of the predefined Distribution Lists, one of which will put all stocks into their respective Indices Sector folder e.g. all retailers go into a Retailers Folder. And the other that will separate all stocks and put them into an Equities folder, a Warrants Folder and an Options folder. 

Can DataDirector 2 copy from an existing database?

You can use the "Copy" facility in DataDirector 2 to copy from an existing database into a new database that you have created. As an example create a Wizard utilizing the Distribution List for Equities / Warrants / Options then using the “Copy” function select your existing database and copy it to your new database … You now have an Equities, Warrants and Options folder that contains all the historical data.

Can I use DataDirector 2 for programs that limit their folder content to 255 files (shares)?
DataDirector 2 has the ability to handle those programs that limit their folder contents to 255 files (shares) per folder. For programs like SuperCharts and TradeStation you will no longer need to download text file and go through a conversion process. Simply create the appropriate wizard and DataDirector 2 will take care of creating the appropriate sub-folders (i.e. A1, A2, etc)..

Can DataDirector 2 download data for individual stocks?
DataDirector 2 has the ability to download data for individual Stocks (max of 20 stocks at a time) so, for example, let us assume that you have accidentally deleted all the historical data for AMP, BHP and CBA, now you can simply download the historical data for just those stocks. Click for screenshot.
 
How can I tell if the data that I want is available for downloading?

Availability of data is now just a simple click of a button. Clients can now just click the Availability button to verify if the data is ready to be downloaded. No need to guess or use up downloads only to find out that the final snapshot has been delayed. Click for screenshot.
