    metastock@xxxxxxxxxxxxx<BR>&gt; Betreff: Filtering out dead 
    stocks<BR>&gt;<BR>&gt; Is there anyway of making a filter that tests to see 
    that the most<BR>&gt; recent data is equal to today's trade 
    date.<BR>&gt;<BR>&gt; I keep getting stocks such as Hadco show up on my 
    explorations even<BR>&gt; though the stock no longer exists. I am tired of 
    manual using the<BR>&gt; Downloader to filter such stocks.<BR>&gt;<BR>&gt; I 
    simply want to filter out stocks whose last trade date is prior to<BR>&gt; 
    today or I guess today - 1.<BR>&gt;<BR>&gt;
