I was going thro some of the postings in this discussion area, and see what are some of the problems encountered and in what way i can assist.
I dont know whether you have found the answer to your problem. I had this problem too in my early usage of Advanced Get. The process is:-
1) Click "File", "Data Paths"
2) A Data Paths window pops up
3) Click "Add" and another "Format" window pops up
4) Click "Metastock File Library", then click "OK"
5) A new item will be added to the "Data Paths" window.
6) Click "Properties" and a "Metastock File Library" window pops up.
7) Click the "...." to search for the folder that containers your Metastock data files
7) Then click "OK" to close those pop up windows.
Hope you won't have a headache doing the above but that is the process.
After that, as usual, you click "File" and "New Chart" to search and call up your metastock file.

A more interesting exercise is: Exporting MetaTrader 4 forex data (any time frame) to csv file and then converting this into Metastock file so that it can be read by Advanced Get (the Professional version). You need a data converter called "Convert2ms". This is a commercial software costing around USD30.00; I have not bought this tho I have tried their trial version (14 days only and hanles 50 records!!!!). The conversion is very fast.
Enjoy yourself.
