Udo, right you are. Then a generic method 
like the following would be useful 
to have:
 
   AddStockToDB(newticker);
 
within that, the ticker is searched at "known" locations 
(maybe a 
local file) and also its "configuration info" 
(Sector/Industry etc.)
and the ticker is added in the right branch and assigned 
to the 
right sector, industry etc. 

 
IMHO this could be easily realized by just <FONT 
face=Arial>putting the one or
few tickers one is interessted in into 
the import/setup script's
input file one had used 
during initial DB setup; should work...

  Hello UM, Steve,
   
  the flip side of your code is this one: 
  Suppose that your stocks will have recovered from their low-price behavior, 
  then you should put them back into the correct Groups/sectors or wherever to 
  participate in the new trading opportunities!
   
  However, once those stocks are gone then 
  you will not any longer be able to track them!
   
  regards,
   
  Udo
   
  P.S.: Investing the time into 
  pre-filter techniques is tedious, but it will sooner or later 
  pay-off!

    Hi Steve,the plugin ABtool has a function for 
    deleting singleand multiple tickers from the AB database. Just 
    movethose stocks to delete into a watchlist and use the following 
    AFL code which is taken from the ABtool/Functions.afl.You can also 
    select them using a condition like in your example.You can then put the 
    result into any desired watchlist byrightclicking within the results 
    window of 
    Scan/Explore.//---------------------------------------------------------function 
    DeleteStocksFromDB(iWL)  { // stocks in the given watchlist are 
    deleted     // from the database    
    count = 0;     ticker = 
    xxWLtickerFirst(iWL);    while (ticker != 
    "")      
    {        count++; 
            xxWinText("" + ticker + 
    "\n");        
    xxDeleteStockFromDB(ticker);  // deletes from 
    DB        ticker = 
    xxWLtickerNext(iWL);      
    }    xxWLclear(iWL);    if (count 
    > 0)      
    {        
    xxViewRefresh();        
    xxWLrefresh();      }  
    }//---------------------------------------------------------In 
    your code call this function for example like this:  
    DeleteStocksFromDB(32);     This deletes all 
    stocks in watchlist 32 permanently from the DBand of course also from 
    the watchlist.You can find the latest ABtool/Functions.afl file 
    here:<A 
    href="">http://groups.yahoo.com/group/abtoolYou 
    just need to #include it at top of your own scriptand issue the 
    DeleteStocksFromDB() function.UM----- Original Message
