    Named List File is Full

    My MSv10 will no longer let me save the results of explorations into new "Favorites" folders.  It keeps flashing an error message "Unable to add name to list file. Named list file is full."

    I deleted the old "favorites.dta" file, but this did not solve the problem.  Is there another file I need to examine ?

    Bump.

    The problem still persists, but I can actually save the list in spite of the error message ... ???

    This is likely caused by two folders in the MetaStock folder, COMMLIST and EQ_SLIST.  Try deleting or renaming these folders and see if this corrects the issue.

    Thanks very much ! :)

    Deleting OR renaming the file COMMLIST did the trick.  MS created a new copy of the file to work with, and everything seemed fine after that.

    Deleting or renaming the file EQ_SLIST did NOT solve the problem in my case.
