TJ,
this seems to work. But why does AB crash (returns
an error after having scanned 4-5% of the QP2 database) when running it on the
WHOLE database?
Does filter=getextradata ("issuetype")=="1"
retrieve ALL preferred stocks.
Thanks for
clarifying
Markus

Bob,
when I run a code like the one provided below,
AB successfully scans about 4-5% of my entire QP2 database and then crashes
telling me that GetExtraData failed plus somewhere in my code were bad
arguments.
Please use the code provided below and tell me
if you encounter the same, if you don´t mind.
Thanks
Markus

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=#000000>("IssueType"<FONT
color=#000000>) ==
"1";<SPAN
class=109391016-20052003> 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.

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.

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 face="Courier New"

color=#0000ff>Name<FONT face="Courier New"
color=#6600aa>(),<FONT face="Courier New"
color=#ff00ff>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
