Jason,

Thank you for your assistance. I'm going to switch off Yahoo! and go 
to a paid service for cleaner data. I'm implementing your code that 
you posted about a week ago on industry and sector analysis. This is 
good stuff. Can I ask you if you've used this code before or 
something like it for decision making? Do you like it? Was it 
inspired by the latest Stocks & Commodities issue? Thanks again.

Ed
