Thanks, Graham. That is how I started, using 12 choices and then created a
watchlist with those 12 and browsing through them. But then I had to fool
with the ticker names to get it in the order I wanted to browse them. I felt
having 12 tabs each for one ticker would be ideal for this application.
That way I can go right to left or left to right and arrange the tabs
accordingly.

the top of the screen or create a set of Layouts each one named after the
object index so that you only need to double click on each layout as you go
through your screening. Sorry, I can't think of an easier solution without
using some advanced macro/scripting.

chart page. The rest of the charts on this page are all derived
AddToComposite data and forced to display only those with Foreign AFL
function. So by design, they show the same thing no matter what ticker is
chosen for the main price display. All I want is when I select the tab, the
main price chart is for the predetermined symbol which matches the
indicators on the page. e.g. I have a layout for McClellan indicators. Let
us say I have 3 chart pages each with 3 panes. Tab 1 is DJI. Pane 1 is DJI
prices. Pane 2: DJ McClellan Breadth Oscillator. Pane 3: is DJ Breadth
Summation Index. Tab 2 is RUT and so on. This way, all I need is to select
the tab to review DJI and RUT without also having to select the ticker and
never have mismatched charts. Watchlist or favorite list will not do the
job.

More cumbersome than just selecting the ticker for the correct combination.
If it can be done via AFL or script, then I can have 10 or more tabs each
fixed to one ticker. And save this as one special layout for this
application.

to fix the price chart display in a given pane to say ^DJI. I can force the
display by using SetForeign. However, AB still uses the currently active
ticker to store studies I create in the indicators in that chart page. So
this does not work for me. I need an equivalent to selecting a ticker from
the Symbols list.
