Did the whole data folder architecture change or something?

Many moons ago, I had both of my installations of SC set up to use \data directories set up in my own user data drive, not on C:. I believe I did this thru some global setting for the data folder location, several months ago something changed and it went back to defaulting to C:\SierraChart\Data. I was able to change it with the FOLDER button on the Open Chartbook dialog, so I just started doing that and never got around to investigating what happened. But now I need the .DLY files that SC used to put in my \Data folder (I have Excel spreadsheets that import them) and I see they haven't been updated since about Sept. of last year. I searched for the .DLY files I need on both my user drive and on C: and can't find them. Did the whole data storage architecture change? Are there still .DLY files? Is there a way to get SC to default to the data folder I want it to use at startup, and to have .DLY files stored there like it used to work? Thanks in advance! Erik |

Nothing has changed at all. These files are going to be stored in the specified Data Files Folder in Global Settings >> General Settings.
