  • need help accessing EFS file.

    I can find the downloaded efs in the formula folder. When I try to access the efs in a advanced chart, it's just no longer there. Can anyone help me out? Thanks! Josh.

    How are you "trying to access the efs in an Advanced Chart"?
    Can you provide more details as to what you are doing?

        Are you sure you saved it in the Formulas folder and not one of its subfolders? An easy way to find this out is to run a search on your hard drive for the efs file you downloaded.

          Alex, Here is what I've done. Suppose I am down loading fisher.efs from esignal center. I save fisher.efs in library folder of formulas. After download, I try to make sure the file is properly save by going to library folder throught program file. All looks good so far. Now, if I try to load fisher.efs either through chart option -> formula -> library or just right click within a chart window -> formula -> library, the fisher.efs is just not there. It's as if I've never downloaded or saved fisher.efs. Yet, I can still locate fisher.efs by going to library folder through program file. I am just not able to figure out what's going on. Thank for your help! Josh

            Hello Josh,

            In your EFS Settings (Tools->EFS->Settings), please show us what the exact path is set to for your Formula Root folder.

              Using Windows Search (For Files or Folders) run a search for fisher.efs and make note of what the complete path to that file is. For example if I ran a search on my drive for customMA.efs the path would be C:\Program Files\eSignal\Formulas\EFS2 Custom\customMA.efs
              Then in eSignal select Tools-> EFS-> Settings from the main menu and check the path in the Formula Root section. Are the two paths the same?

                Thank you very much Jason and Alex!!!! My exact path set for formula root has been changed. I used Ablesys for a while. That software's altered the path. It's all good now. Josh
