Ahh, I see, that might be useful. Personally I use an InfoSelect database system for al my formulas. Each week or so I search my HD by date for new .afl files and import them into my database. InfoSelect has nice/fast search functions and formulas can be previewed, which helps greatly in finding code. Cut/paste from IS which is more convenient than finding stuff in the huge chart tree.
best regards,
