Herman,

Thank you, for this response! 

However, I do not have any problem w/drag and drop, I
do not have any problem with indicators, I do not need
any unique indicators, that is, other than what I
currently am using, and as a matter of fact I have
read the instructions from the help menu on how to
create "Chart Layouts." I believe that unfortunatley,
none of which you have laid out here seems to apply to
my particular case. perhaps if you had read my message
posted earlier, (it would be the first msg. titled
"Layouts")  you would understand a bit more precisely
what I am talking about.

thanks again,

MJ
