[amibroker] Re: IndustryID of Foreign...

["jtelang" <jtelang@xxxxxxxxx>]

Anthony,

If you run that in exploration, x is the sector id of
the current symbol, not that of msft. Do you see
the sector id of msft when you run it (when msft itself
is not selected)?

If my currently selected symbol is say !SPX, I need to
get to other tickers' industry or sector id's to calculate
some statistics, through whichever means. I was thinking 
that either one of the following two would be good 
solutions -

indId = Foreign("MSFT", "IndustryID");

or

SetForeign("MSFT");
indId = IndustryID();
RestorePriceArrays();

Thanks.

Jitu
