<DIV><FONT size=2><FONT size=2>It sounds parculiar, but in using software,
nothing should come as a surprise.</FONT></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2><FONT size=2></FONT></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV></FONT><FONT size=2>Here, on my machine, </FONT><FONT size=2>the
systematics described in the FAQ's have always worked perfectly.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>To me, there are no </FONT><FONT size=2>program defects in
this department.</FONT></DIV></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Also, the FAQuestions were put in the mail "in general", eg
much like the previous sent OLE faq's,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>and not </FONT><FONT size=2>particularly directly addressed to
you or completely answering your problems.</FONT></DIV></FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>If they are/were of any help, great, else you will(must have)
have (had) severe problems. But to</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>automaticaly </FONT><FONT size=2>call 'corrupted data' a
"program bug", goes a bit too far.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Example, I know that </FONT><FONT size=2>you also use a 3td
party software conversion program. This I have done so</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>as well for the past 2 years (with all the ups and
downs, some known for in old DOS programs).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Also myself, on one or two occasions, have had corrupted
files, but these were all due to 3td party</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>software.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>If, like was mentioned earlier on the List, this </FONT><FONT
size=2>conversion program you use has (had) severe</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Y2k problems, than </FONT><FONT size=2>also include the
possibility that it can be also the </FONT><FONT size=2>cause in that
your </FONT><FONT size=2>files/folder</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>have had </FONT><FONT size=2>become corrupted. </FONT><FONT
size=2>Note here, only taking this option in considderation as one of the
many</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>other possibilities.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>And knowing too, </FONT><FONT size=2>that the Downloader
program will always finish LAST when combatting in any</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>conversion-race, it still does its Convert's jobs </FONT><FONT
size=2>solidly. Dreadfully slow, and sometimes in a very</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>parculiar way, but still </FONT><FONT size=2>always
solid.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>No problems for you tho, I think, since you always have
backups. </FONT><FONT size=2>And from testing any of your</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>other Data Folders, </FONT><FONT size=2>you will also soon be
able to find out the reason why just one(1) Folder </FONT><FONT
size=2>got</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>corrupted, </FONT><FONT size=2>and not any of your other
Folders or your entire database, eg just run Test on the other</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>folders that were converted by your program.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>You also do a test yourselves, by converting using the
Downloader, to a test-file in just a test-folder.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Then delete some of the Date's Data, like done in your
other file that was corrupted, and if all fails,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>than you must have a severe program or Data File's
problem.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>All the best,</FONT></DIV>

Hello To All!
Wonderful group inhere.
I have recently purchased MS 6.52EOD, and I am trying to create an indicator
that will find and plot swing points for a given period (default is 7).
i.e., we will consider a price high to be any day that has at least 6 lower
highs on both side of it. A price low will be a daily low with at least six
higher daily lows on both sides.
Any help or advice is most welcome. I am still struggling with MS formula
language
Thanks & Regards
Alan A. Darwiche
