Study "Write Bar Data to File". If I leave the "File Path" blank it will write to the default SC\Data directory but when I enter my own "File Path" the data will not write to it. For instance - y:\Trade\SC Data or y:\Trade\SC Data\ - it will not write.

Make sure that folder actually exists. Since the folder is not going to get created automatically.

We are also going to update the study function to use our common function for writing bar and study data.

The folder definitely exists. Still won't write to it. I'll wait and see if the update fixes it. Thanks.

Any idea when this will be fixed? I even tried writing it to my C: drive root, doesn't work. Only writes if I leave it blank, to the default SC Data folder.

The updates described at post #2 were done at that time. We cannot reproduce the original issue.
