I do
not know exactly what you are looking for but this may
help <A
href="">http://www.grainmarketresearch.com/ndx_symbols.cfm
<SPAN

this
site reports the components of popular lists such as the S&P, the NAs 100
etc. The way I brought them in was to simply drag the list then copy to the clip
board then drop them into excel or a similar program. Once saved as a CSV file
in excel I import the new list file via the Import wizard in Amibroker. Since
you do not need the data only the tickers choose the "No Quotation" option.
There is (I think ) a tutorial in the gelp file for using the import
wizard that you may wish to review.

If you
are still confused contact me off list and I will walk you through the
procedure...

Continue...Jayson,This is EXACTLY the sort of
information I've been looking for. Alternative ways of organising my
data.I know I can simply list both portfolios in the Metastock Plugin
screen. That gets me all 600 stocks in one mighty database in AB. How do
I seperate the two groups into 2
watchlists?Thanks,Steve--- In
