Hi all,
Pesky question here... when importing the Fractals S&R lines to NT, I received an error stating

"The NinjaScript Archive File may contain duplicate method names that already exist on your PC or there is a required file missing on either your PC or in the import archive."

I deleted Mikes Fractals (sorry Mike) from Documents=>NT7=>bin=>custom=>indicator but it didn't help.Any ideas?
Thanks so much!!

Which version of FractalsSRlines are you importing and did you have a previous version of FractalsSRline installed?

Hi Tasker_182,
Thanks so much for the reply.
The version I was trying to import is FractalsSRLines.zip from the NT Indicator forum. Umm I just realized the file is a cs file so I imported it correctly this time. After I compiled it, I received the error "FileNameEditor could not be found - are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?"

I may have tried to import this before but can find no trace of it in the Custom=> Indicator folder. Is there another place to search for it?

Thanks again for taking the time to help me.

Did you perform the following directions?

The following actions must be completed before importing this release, otherwise you may get import error:

1. Please remove any previous version and restart ninja trader.
2. Open any indicator for edit via Tools > Edit NinjaScript, right mouse click and select References > Add, and find the following file, Open, OK.
"C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\System.Design.dll"

Also, when you import it must be a zipped file to import.

Again, thank you very much.
