Assuming you know which industry-index (i.e. ticker) belongs to the
particular industry (i.e. IndustryID()), and it is already as a
ticker available in your DBase, it is simple:
if (IndustryID(1)=="Energy") IndustryIndex = Foreign("S&PEnergy","C");
else if (IndustryID(1)=="Materials") IndustryIndex = Foreign
("S&PEnergy","C");
etc.
Same with MarketID.
But I may misinterpret your requirements.
