Problem with import mq4 file

[Jossber]

Hello.

I have a problem when I want to save another project from existing one by importing project mq4 option.

This option does not work for me in some projects, although I have tried others and it works well.

I would like to know the cause why it does not work, if there is any limit or some rule so this does not happen.

There are some projects that I have had to type them by hand several times and it is very uncomfortable.

Thank you

I tried importing and it works for me. If your .mq4 file is not secret, can you send it to me?

[Jossber]

Ok, no problem. It's not secret.

How can I send you the mq4 file?

Thank you

Working?

[Sehn]

No good, imports still do nothing. Tried several files multiple times.

You can try with this mq4 file. I can't import that file.

I guess I still don't know how to work with the whole variety of possible file encodings. There is only 1 bit in this file that prevents breaks my functions. The problem actually comes from that text OPERACIÓN LANZADA in block 33

Because I don't know when will I fix this, here is what I would suggest. Scroll on the bottom of the file and you will find weird text that is commented. Make a .mq4 file that contains this text only and it should work.

Your file works now

Thank you very much for the help. I do not usually put strange characters, but in this case I put it without realizing it.

Now that works perfect.
