> From: Equis Support recently:
> ....System Testing for multiple securities is not a large request either...
When Equis destroyed the macro capability, they destroyed system testing for
multiple securities. In the pre-Windows versions of MS I had a very simple
macro that would run against all "identified" securities (there was the
ability to tag any security you wished, with an asterisk, so that MS would
then automatically run your macro against only those that were so identified).
Within that macro, I could send the resulting report for the individual
security to a file, using the MS default file name and take the "append"
option that MS offered at the time. That way, you could test multiple
securities and save each and every report, to one file. Equis has also
destroyed the "append" function of the report capability. When Equis took
away these two MS features, they thumbed their noses at the user community and
said "To Hell with them", and have obviously taken the additional stand that
nobody wants them. Talk about arrogance and ignoring the user community -
they are famous for this and have done it for years. I screamed bloody murder
when they erased the macro capability - to no avail.
I don't give a damn about any new indicators or system testing formulas, they
are a dime a dozen and anyone with just a little gumption can create those on
their own. Yet, that is all they continue to add to MS, and charge $99 for
the upgrade, plus the shipping and handling. Hell! They have all their
expenses - plus some profit, covered in the shipping and handling alone!!!
