[amibroker] determine the first and last symbol

["bigitop" <doctormuniz@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have script that does various calculations on each stock in a database but it needs to know the beginning and end of the database symbol list. Right now I have to explicitly tell the script which is the first and last stock in the particular database by using:

If (Name() == "^AORD") { .... }
If (Name() == "ZZ") { .... } 

How can I automatically detect which is the first and last stock symbol in a given database?   this would be equivalent to the first and last symbol in the "All" category (stocks are sorted alphabetically).
