Brooke, I know that it is hard to believe that I do not know everything, but here goes another question. In the help menu for Quotes Plus, there is an example of the MAX() feature. What is shown is Max(-1,-250,cl) and it is said to mean "the highest closing price in the last 250 day period). My question is with the -1, why would it not read Max(0,250,cl) to get the stated results? It would seem that by using the -1, you would get the maximum value for the 249 days ending yesterday. What am I missing? --- webb blackman ---
