I have two files of 1-min data, one for all of 2011 and for all of 2012. I thought I could be cute and import these two files under the file names 12-11.Last and 12-12.Last and then be able to access all the data from the two years from only two contract names. Unfortunately if I attempt to chart past the 14th of September the chart will return a blank. The historical data manager knows that the data is for the whole year and if I do a similar import of one of these files using the ##-##.Last nomenclature I can chart any dates in the data set.
From this, can I presume that if I specify data as being from a specific contract as I have here for 12-12 and 11-12, NT7 will only work with dates for when this contract is normally traded? Secondly, is the solution to my problem to simply combine these two files into one colossal file and import all the data under ##-##.
Thanks,
