I meant that you
should use issuetype in a QP scan [see below]
In order see what
was happening, I scanned with IssueType Preferred; and imported the
list..
Voila, the
critters all returned "1".
Hence Filter =
GetExtraData(<FONT
color=#ff00ff>"IssueType")<FONT
face="Courier New"> == <FONT
color=#ff00ff>"1"; got
them and != "1" should toss 'em out. Note, however, that this way is much
slower than doing it in QP and importing the
watcchlist.

String question
Bob,
glad you stepped in here.
I used the
filter=getextradata("issuetype")=="p".
Weird enough, AB starts checking, then returns
error as below.
Would you mind checking if the code is correct
(i.e. finds ALL preferred) plus if you encounter the same error,
please????
Line 2, Column 40:Filter=
GetExtraData("issuetype")=="
p";---------------------------------------^
Error 18.GetExtraData failed
Many thanks
Markus

<SPAN
class=290302014-19052003>Why not simply do this in QP2 then create a
watchlist of your exported qp2 list? The advantage is that AB does not
need to chug through your whole database checking all your various
criteria since every stock in your watchlist will meet all your
criteria.When doing scans and explores you simply point to this
"Universe" of stocks.

String question
Hello,
I want to exclude all preferred stocks from
my scan.
In their symbols they either end with " p"
(space p) or with " p.." (space p followed by any other
letter).
While the first may be excluded by<FONT
color=#6600aa face="Courier New">
(StrRight<FONT
color=#6600aa face="Courier New">(<FONT color=#0000ff
face="Courier New">Name<FONT color=#6600aa
face="Courier New">(),<FONT color=#ff00ff
face="Courier New">2) !=
" P"
how could exclude latter case since I don´t know which (if at all)
letter might follow??
Thank you for your help
Markus
