Of course it WORKS. It sorts the SYMBOLS inside the watch list. The TLS file won't be changed until you SAVE THE DATABASE. The disk files ARE NOT WRITTEN until you save the database. If disk files were written constantly AmiBroker would be slow as hell. Watch list operations are optimized for speed and operate in-memory. Files are not touched. The same applies to creating .TLS files externally - they won't be read at all, until database is (re)loaded. In general case you should NOT touch files inside "Watchlists" folder if AmiBroker is currently working on given database, because AB will overwrite this files anyway at save. The only safe thing you can do is to create new .TLS file. Best regards, Tomasz Janeczko amibroker.com
