A couple more things. The program in the Tools tab is called Cleanup database. Click on this and it will launch Cleanup.js.
However, you don't have to have it in Tools you can add it to Tools by going to Tools/Customize/Tools and use the New operator. Change the name from New Item to Cleanup database. Then on the command line enter C:\Program Files\AmiBroker\Scripts\Cleanup.js for the path to the program, assuming that is where you put the script. Then when you go back to Tools you will see the script in the list and you can run it from Tools menu.
