Hi Graham,
Posted my earlier post by mistake, didnt realise you had replied to 
it already. Thanks for all your help, I do appreciate it.
I was hoping for an answer to using Barssince cause it is mentioned 
in the help file.
Is it possible to look forward in the array as in
x= Ref(Close,1)- Ref(Close,+5);
Getting a syntax error when trying to do this.
Regards,
Stef
