Point out which one of the methods does or doesn't work out when the secs are <2000
and then where they go wrong.
There could have been steps that you've missed and/or there are other steps to omit
the 2k+ quantity/folder, eg copy bundles of 1000 secs over to another folder, then
print to txt files and join.

True. Most methods suggested are basicaly some kind of workarounds.
But also the List is here to provide (some minimum) support or express opions when
support has been requested and also discuss any solutions, good or bad.
And as has previously + recently once again been stated:
the List it is not a direct line to the Equis programmer's decision board.
Therefore, what have you done yourselves to get Equis updated/notified on this by
many requested functionality?
Have you send your suggestion already to suggestion@xxxxxxxxx

No swet. But give some feedback on the above (where did it go wrong, which one doesn't work),
now will you?
And the gas situation is a political thingy, that can + will only be solved by all parties involved.
Governments -being the greatest monopolists on earth{each can tax anything if they only snap
their fingers} - will have to give in. And they will. No doubt 'bout it.
{this since -also wisely(!) done so- the "oil trade" doesn't give in}.
And it also does drive inflation through its roof, eg bad for any economic growth continuation, so
the expected rice in the yields+collapse in the Bond markets is not that far away now.
Long term Puts on the Nasdaq, or for that matter on any stock index, can be bought
"with a great peace of mind".
Speaking of the Nasdaq, the downtrend continuation signal is not that far of now either, with
the in a prior mail mentioned "double resistance around 4300" now forming an ascending triangle,
also known as a "rising wedge in a {continuing} downtrend(=bearish)".
