Which RTD vendor is this ?
If your data vendor is starting AB for you, then it is most likely that the directory from which AB is started is not the AB folder and it doesn't get the correct path to the XML file.

In either case, you should contact/report it to them.

hi thank you for quick reply.

You should start AmiBroker from Windows START menu (or from AmiBroker desktop icon), not from 3rd party software.

Your problems come from the fact that your 3rd party software is incorrectly written and does not run AmiBroker in correct directory (it must be run so current working directory (aka "Start in" folder) is set to where AmiBroker is installed.
