No you can't identify a certain stock or group in a formula. Like IBM =100. You can scan and find stocks or group that meet a criteria and print out and test them for more filters. I don't know about Dividends, must be something from the 50s. Dig in to those help files and look at the works of others, you will be surprised what you can do.

Also, what would be a scan that would produce the S&P 500 stocks, list their dividend amount in $$$ and their record date or ex-dividend date? You don't need to and Quotes Plus doesn't have the capability for writing a scan to create a list of stocks in the S&P 500. Quotes Plus comes with a list of stocks in the S&P 500. It is in the Qp2data\Members directory and it is called sp500.lst. Use sp500.lst as an input list for a scan to print a list of dividends for S&P 500 stocks. You can not print a list of record and ex-dividend dates as there are no scan functions for retrieving record and ex-dividend data. Could there be a scan based on put/call ratios. No. The Quotes Plus database doesn't contain any put/call data.
