What I'd like to do is scan for high dividend yielders .. look for high yields and announcement dates and x-div dates.

You can use the Yield function to scan the database for high dividend yielders. The Yield function is not listed in the "Dictionary of Scan Function" however, you can get information on the Yield function by looking in the "Help Topics" index. There aren't any functions for reading the values of announcement and x-div dates stored in the database. My recommendation is use the Yield function to scan for high dividend yielders and then look up the announcement and x-div dates in the description and fundamental database for the stocks you are interested in. If you are a glutton for punishment and want to try to use Visual Basic to read and print the values of announcement and x-div dates I suggest you start here:
