Little trouble with Metatrader

I'm using meta trader 4 build 193 but i'm having trouble using the mq4 files. what i do is download the file, and put it into the 'experts' subfolder in the metatrader program files. Then I run the MetaQuotes Language editor and open the mq4 file, and then compile it. The mq4 file now appears under 'expert advisors' in my metatrader. But for some reason when i right click and choose 'attach to chart', or i open a chart and try to drag it onto it, it doesnt do anything. I was wondering if anyone knows why this isnt working or what i'm doing wrong.

Thanks in advance

I just copy the mq4 files in indicators folder which is under experts. Then open up metatrader and you should see the indicator under custom indicators list. No need to compile or anything.
Hope that helps

well that worked
