Product Importing Data
Once you have data files on your hard drive, open Bull's-Eye Broker and do the following:
  1. Determine or create your own File Format. You can do this by selecting File Format Setup from the Data menu. Press F1 for help using this screen.
  2. If the "Select Import Data Files" screen is not showing, from the File menu, select Import.
  3. Select the drive you wish to use from the Drive list box.
  4. Select the directory where the data files are located from the Directory list box.
  5. Select all the files you would like to import from the Available Files list. You can select multiple files by clicking on each individual file while holding down the Ctrl key.
  6. Click the Add (>) button. Alternatively, if you would like to add all the files in the Available Files list, click the Add All button (>>). The files should appear in the Selected Files list.
  7. Repeat steps 2 – 5 until you have selected all the files to be used for the import.
  8. Select the File Format of these data files. All files selected for the import must be of the same format.
  9. Click the Begin Import button.

The Import will begin. Any errors that occurred during the import will be reported. Please note that error reporting is done line by line and lines containing errors are not saved to the database. This means if there are 360 lines in your text file and only 2 are reported as having errors in them, Bull's-Eye Broker has processed 358 lines successfully. Please contact your data provider if your text file contains errors.

To confirm that the data has been imported successfully you can use the View Data feature in Bull's-Eye Broker. From the View menu, select Data.
