Thanks Steve, you code worked fine. I added it to all of the volume-
related indicators that I now use, including a file with lots of ATC
functions that accumulate volumes for indexes.
I think you are right that its unique to my machine. I had removed
TC from my machine a couple of years ago, but didn't remove the TC
database directory from Amibroker. Before reinstalling TC I did
remove all contents within Amibroker's Telechart directory but I kept
all the broker.xxx files that contained layouts and watchlist data.
Then I reinstalled the TC database into Amibroker and put the old
broker.xxx files back into their proper directories. It all worked
great except for this one day with screwy volume data.
BTW, is there an proper method to remove a database from Amibroker?
