Tomasz - thanks for the reply - here's my thoughts: 1. I was talking about adding the reports/charts to the current report feature (as accessed from AA). From my point of view, I don't want to be constantly switching layouts to see this kind of stuff. But you're right - you can achieve probably all of it via the current functionality.
2. Excellent suggestion. 3. That gets a list of all symbols - but then I have to iterate through the list to get the count. 4. That's a great suggestion - I really like the include idea to keep them separate. Thanks! --- In amibroker@yahoogroups.com, "Tomasz Janeczko" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hello, > > 1.
