Re: Import to a watchlist

Thanks Gang, it looks like we have the answers for importing to a 
group. Thanks to you all.

Now for the original question: importing directly to a watchlist.

In my case I have external data lists that are refreshed at least on 
a weekly basis and usually on a daily basis. The content is 
constantly changing. The reason I want to import directly to a 
watchlist is to segregate those stocks from the larger "all" list for 
scanning and backtesting purposes. The reason to make it a watch 
list is to facilitate deleting the list when I have finished with it 
without deleting the security data. I can imagine that I might have 
10-20 such lists at any one time, each with its own name.

So TJ, can this be done today without generating a large amount 
of "busy work" on my part? If not, would you please consider getting 
it on the to do list soon. In my case I would be using AmiFeed to 
import from QP2 directly to a named watchlist or perhaps I might 
want to use the MetaStock file importer. Either one would get the 
job done.
Cheers
