Pretty simple, bdog. Daysrequired = 228 rejects those with shorter histories. [Usually use Daysrequired to avoid a runtime 'Indicator x needs y days -- not enough days available'.] Bob

Thanks bdog, I will try that but I am amazed at how I can screw up a simple scan like that. Makes you wonder! Monty

Hi bdog, Keeping the daystoload rem'd out and adding...daysrequired = 228; Got around to trying that and it worked. Now try the same scan with "daysrequired=229;" and watch what happens. Mine went NUTS! along with me. :-) Also, I changed the scan from -202 to -201 and left the daysrequired=228; and mine went Nuts again! Runs the scan, does not update dialog while the scan is running and clicking on cancel will not stop the scan. Have to ctrl+alt+del to stop the scan. How did you arrive at 228 rather than 229 230 or some other larger number? Monty
