Gary,
I have been having all kinds of problems getting the latest version of TechniFilter Plus to read a list of files created by a scan. When I examine a file created by a QP2 scan and one created by TF+, I see one major difference.

In the list created by TF+, each line as a given stock symbol and nothing more. That is if the symbol was say INTC, then only 4 characters are on that line. In the output from QP2, there are several spaces following the INTC. It is like every line was filled with spaces to make the name a given size. I think that this is the main reason that I am having so many problems in getting TF+ to read the .lst files.

Is there some reason for these extra characters being added to the .LST files? Is there a print command that will eliminate this problem?
I know that I could always create a list of files by hand for TF+ to read, but that seems like such a waste of time.

Do you have any suggestions?
