<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>Thanks for your comments DT.
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff

<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>Yes, I did try your code and I got "exactly" the same results
using your code as using StockNum. I quess you didn't try my code :-)
<FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>Here is the example highlighting my problem again, this
time I include your code for comparison: it doesn't change anything (see chart
below, Red is mine, Blue is your code).
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>The question remains unanswered: why does a stock that stops trading but
that remains in the watchlist change the sequence of 'StockNum's in my
composite? I expected to see a straight line.
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>My chart shows that when my stock (#11) stops having data it's
StockNum drops to zero and then the offset is added again at position 56.
<FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>There is probably a very simple explanation but i don't
see/understand what is happening.

Need a Numerical Stock referenceHerman,Did you
really try the code [after the instructions] and didn´t work reliably
?Because it works in my 4.50.6.If BEAS is #18 in the superWL60, it
will give ID=18 in any exploration [current stock, other WL including
BEAS, other group including BEAS etc].This ID=18 will be unique for
BEAS and, as far as I understood, it was your request.Do not forget to
move **ALL** stocks into WL60 **BEFORE** any exploration.I have no
doubt it works !!Dimitris Tsokakis--- In amibroker@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx,
