Re: Exploration on Weekly Data

Essan,

Try the following:

Go to Explorer, select the Exploration you want to run, then select
Edit|Options. From Exploration Options select Specific Date and enter the
date of the most recent Friday for which you have data. Then select Weekly
for the Periodicity.

This works for me. Hope it does for you too!!
