Another solution would be for a 3rd party to develop a back testing scan facility that read the qp database directly. I'd be happy to talk to any developers who have an interest. Gary, You certainly don't want ME writing your code! I'm a VB hacker: I know just enough to get my work done. I just don't have enough time to develop a technique. I have been a programmer for many years, however, and would like to contribute suggestions. Perhaps you could sell more product and develop more users by investing in a technical writer who could build a robust tutorial (online and in print$) so you wouldn't lose those parties interested in the product but who might be intimidated by the coding. BASIC really is basic and easy to learn if presented in the right way. This would certainly be less expensive than an army of developers. BTW, the system is very fast and smooth. Nice job. How about a "clear" or "refresh" button to remove the lines from the graphs, however? Maybe we should start a QP2Nagging thread for suggestions, bug reports, etc.. Sending them to support won't stimulate other ideas from your users. After all, look what happened to SI itself because of input from the users! (I was the person who suggested Private Messaging.)

Just click the items you want, and the results appear in a spreadsheet as fast as you can click. From there, you can export to MS or ascii etc. I hope to be able to show a development version in Cleveland. Now that's cool. RS
