Ken thank...I thought this might be the case. Unfortunately, I am
not a very experience programmen...can you or somone point me to an
example of an indicator with this code (e.g. for candlesticks
represnting price) so that I can learn how to do it?
ANd I do like AB much better than MetaStock os foar.
