1. If u need to delete Only Quotes between two specified Dates, then use Script by MasterMind or Trash , wl upload morrow if u cud not find it on ur own.

2. If u need to delete any Symbols , Best option is to manually open the DB & delete the unwanted Symbols manually.

3.And plz dont forget to delete "Broker.Master" file inside the DB , dont worry this file wl b auto Re-Generated on ur nxt use of the DB

4.Plz make a BackUp copy of ur Original DB b4 u embark on ur Delete-Journey. U may delete the BackUp once u r happy with the Cleaned DB and ensured working.

Thanks Brother for your reply

Where could I find the script file?

Actually my data source is not junk free :( Junk included in every (CSV) updates/imports. But they are common in name of symbols. If a script can delete the symbols (pre-specified) with data as it need.

Use database purify, select nifty as bad symbol

You should be using BUILT-IN Amibroker tools instead of writing unreliable formulas taken from who-knows-where.

Use the following: Tools->Database Purify to generate list of inactive symbols and other data errors
Right click on the result list “add all symbols to watch list”

Then you can delete all symbols from watch list, for example using assignment organizer or just straight from Symbols window.
(multi-select - click first, hold down SHIFT key and click last). If you want to delete.
