Bob,
Thanks for
your response. If I understand correctly, that will do the relative
strength calculation using the contents of the field as the base ticker.
I really want the value “MG322” in the example and not the calculation so that
I can display the Hemscott group number in a textual output report. I
just do not see anyway to get the contents of the field. I thought there
may be a way to access the field through OLE but it is not clear just how to
accomplish this task.
Thanks
again.

Strength
Given a
ticker symbol it is relatively easy to get the industry group. How
does one reference the value of the Base Indexes for Relative Strength from
AFL?
In other
words, I want to find out which if any group a particular ticker was assigned
to by Worden for use in Relative Strength calculations. I believe you
have to add these by hand at least I did and it was not obvious to me how to
reference this field programmatically.
Thanks.
