[amibroker] Question on code, GetCategorySymbols and StrExtract

["James Quillian" <jquillian@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This is what I am trying to do.

Within the context of an exploration.

After defining an the list of symbols in the Automatic Analysis Panel
Use the following code to pull up an additional list of symbols from 
watch list 0.

list = GetCategorySymbols( categoryWatchlist, 0) 

for( i = 0; ( sym = StrExtract( list, i ) ) != ""; i++ );

I am guessing that an array would be built that would contain i 
symbols.
For example if watch list 0 was of the Dow 30 components the array 
would contain the 30 symbols.

If that is not right please correct me. 

Otherwise, what is the correct way to make reference to the values 
in the arrays of each symbol?

For example, if the first symbol was AA, what code would refer to 
the close for AA on a given day?

Thanks

James
