I hope your baby is feeling better soon Tomasz.

But please think about this.  Why have a QE function at all?  To copy
data from a newspaper?  I think not.  Almost always, it will be to
copy data from a screen source.  And I am not the only one who has
problems with this.  It is also a pain the way the "save" routine
works, and others have mentioned it.

As I'm sure you know, the Downloader, a separate program from
Metastock, can be sized and placed right on top of a trading screen.
How about making the QE window like that?  Is this difficult?  I have
no idea.  If not, can you please do it?  If it presents a serious
problem, please let us know so we can stop bothering you about it.
Microsoft knows NOTHING about TA programs.  Citing their "standards"
for window behavior means nothing.  No one cares much about
Microsoft; they care about getting their work done.  That is all I
care about -- getting my work done as easily as possible.  The QE
window makes my work very hard to do.

I am sorry this got posted to the list and to you.  It was intended
only for you, but I have a stupid folder template that sometimes
sends messages where I don't want them.  I have deleted the son of a
bitch.
