I had to reinstall NT7. I ported the entire NT7 directory from the old My Documents to the new one. This includes all the data, all the strategies, all the SA parameter xml files. I re-compiled all the strategies.
Everything appears to be in order.
But when I Run Backtest in SA the screen refreshes immediately with zero results, zeros in all fields of the Summary Tab.
It almost seems like something is not connected with the port. Are there any critical files that needed to be ported from the old NT7 AppData or ProgramData or Program Files folders?
I was able to narrow down the problem to the XML files in Templates>Strategy folder. I had ported them from the old install. The header of the XML files read <Version>7.0.1000.10</Version> . I notice that when I save using the new install (and latest NT7) the XML files reads <Version>7.0.1000.11</Version>.
So I compared the .10 with the .11 and found that only the order of some of the items was changed. Do you have a converter from .10 to .11? Or can you tell me what needs to be converted so that I can use a batch file manipulator? I have a ton of XML files which would take me very long to manually redo and resave.
I've tried saving the XML then closing NT then coping the old XML then starting NT then Run Backtest in SA. No luck. What's different about .11 from .10?
I'm running Win 8 64bit. I tried both NT7 32bit and 64bit. No backtesting.
Regards.
