[amibroker] Re: My own function in Exploration - problem

["vlanschot" <ecbu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

You can "capture & hold" a specific IndustryID by using the OLE-
properties. An example:

AB=CreateObject("Broker.Application")

Stocks=AB.Stocks();
SpecificStock=Stocks.Item("MSFT");
SpecStIndus=SpecificStock.IndustryID();
etc.

Hope this helps,

PS
