"HELP" I NEED HELP ON A CANSLIM SCAN

Hi Brooke's

I have QP1 or R1 and I write my own scans that seem to work for me.
However now Im playing around with QP2 that a friend of mine has,
and I am having a little problem learning the new scan language.

Is QP2 written in BASIC NOW ?

I got 5 of my friends to order QP1 and only One tries to write
any scans and now two of them have upgraded to QP2 and that leave
me the lager.

I wonder if you could help me help someone else?
I copied a Canslim scan off the Quote Plus 2 website were you
and Andy have written scans for people to copy.

geocities.com

I copied this Canslim scan and gave it to my friend, he said it
does'nt work I wonder if you would take a look at it and see if
you could find anything wrong with it.

Maybe even copy it to your CPU run the scan (EDIT) it until it works.

And then send it back to me, so I can send it to my friend.

I will also keep it for myself when I upgrade.

Thank You
JIM
