["gmorlosky" <gmorlosky@xxxxxxxxx>]

I got it....Here is the code....enjoy...

Category 			= "";
function ParamCategory() // This is the main category where we look for our list
{
    global CategoryList;
    CategoryList		= "Market   ,Group    ,Sector   ,Industry ,Watchlist,Favorite ,Index    ";
    Tickercategory	= ParamList( "Ticker category", "Market|Group|Sector|Industry|Watchlist|Favorite|Index", 3 ); // set to 3 for Industry
    Category 			= TickerCategory;
    TickerCategory	= ( StrFind( CategoryList, Tickercategory ) - 1 ) / 10;
    return TickerCategory;
}

function ParamListNum( Category ) // This is where we find the List Number
{
    global ListNum;
    ListNum 		= Param( "List Number", 4, 0, 255, 1 ); // set to 4 for Agricultural Chemicals
    return ListNum;
}

TickerCategory 	= ParamCategory();
TickerListNum 	= ParamListNum( TickerCategory );
CategoryListOK	= IIf( StrLen( CategoryGetSymbols( TickerCategory, TickerListNum ) ) > 0, 1, 0 );
//ManualRefresh		= ParamTrigger( "Manual Refresh:", "REFRESH NOW" );
ListName			= CategoryGetName( Tickercategory, ListNum );
Title1				= ListName + " - " + ListNum + " - ";
Tickerlist			= CategoryGetSymbols( Tickercategory, ListNum );
Filter = 1;

IIDnum = ListNum;
IIDname = ListName;
CompName     = "~i" + IIDnum + "-" + StrLeft( IIDname, 16 );


/////////////////


EnableScript("JScript");
<%
function SetChartTicker(newTicker)
{
AB = new ActiveXObject("Broker.Application");
AB.ActiveDocument.Name = newTicker;
return 1;
}
%>

TickerChanged = IIf(Name() != CompName,1,0);

if(TickerChanged)
{
script = GetScriptObject();
script.SetChartTicker(CompName);
}
/////////////////



SetChartOptions(0,chartShowArrows|chartShowDates);
_N(Title = StrFormat("{{NAME}} - {{INTERVAL}} {{DATE}} Open %g, Hi %g, Lo %g, Close %g (%.1f%%) {{VALUES}}", O, H, L, C, SelectedValue( ROC( C, 1 ) ) ));
Plot( C, "Close", ParamColor("Color", colorBlack ), styleNoTitle | ParamStyle("Style") | GetPriceStyle() );
