skip download when tick data to csv file

Post by 4EverMaAT »

If I already have downloaded data and I simply want to convert into csv format, does TickStory still attempt to check the internet to get more data? I should be able to use the existing database and generate csv file only from what is already stored locally.

I would like a checkbox that would allow the user to skip checking online for missing files. There could still be a check during the processing to see if there are any gaps in the data, but put that info in the log....still process the csv uninterrupted.

edit: is there a method where you can append to an existing csv file rather than having to regenerate the entire csv file?

Hi 4EverMaat,

Please refer to the manual as it explains how the download function works. Tickstory does not re-download data if it already exists on disk.
This post also explains in detail:

Regarding appending to an existing CSV, this function will be available in the next major version of Tickstory.

Regards.
