PMTo: AmiBroker ListSubject: [amibroker] Filter on 
StringJust curious.  Is it possible to filter on a 
set of names?I have a lot of AVGxxxx symbols that I want to collect into 
a watchlist.I 
tried:Na=Name();Filter=StrLeft("Na",3)=="AVG";Buy=0;AddTextColumn( 
Na,"Name");....but no luck.  Is there a way to do 
this?Thanks,KenPS: I have met my need by Filter = 1; and 
list up to the area I wantedto capture, but still would like to know how to 
do the above.Send
