    <DIV>I installed the latest ver. 7.01 eod Metastock and now find that arrows 
    (applied by the expert or system tester) no longer print</DIV>
    <DIV>(nor appear in the print preview screen) as arrows but an eggshaped 
    symbol instead.</DIV>
    <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
    <DIV>If I install an HP DeskJet 600 arrows are printed.</DIV>
    <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
    <DIV>Going back to ver. 6.52 on another machine arrows are printed.</DIV>
    <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
    <DIV>I have contacted equis by email but as yet no response.</DIV>
    <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
    <DIV>Is anyone out there using an HP LaserJet with MS ver 7.01 ?? and are 
    you able to print arrows ?? Which LaserJet driver have you installed 
??</DIV>

I believe you are completely right !  Same thing with the EOD upgrade from
6,5 to 7 which costs $150 and apart fixes not much USABLE has been added.
I'm strongly doubting in what business Equis is really in.
