Create you own Sym file, eg you can do so in NotePad and save the text-file as
mysymbols.sym
to the Downloaders program folder (C:\Equis\Dlwin).
Then use the New Security's Symbol LookUp and Create Files functions.
Search DL's Help|Index Tab and search for
Creating Symbols lists(.sym) for the Look-up Dialog
or see my previous mail (06091999)
