<SPAN

<SPAN 
class=990510610-07012004> 
Would anybody know 
if there is a way to assign, or perhaps AB has it already internally, a 
permanent numerical ID to stocks? 
<SPAN

<FONT face=Arial

<-> Symbol conversion routine (DLL?). <SPAN 
class=990510610-07012004>Would it be possible to convert a Symbol's ASCII 
string to a number within the processing range of AB? <SPAN 
class=990510610-07012004>I don't like tables because they have to be maintained, 
loaded and saved.

<FONT face=Arial

much easier to work with permanent reference numbers as they can be stored and 
manipulated in numerical arrays.

it changes with the watchlist or when a stock drops out half-way during an AA

Are there any rules
